Career & Experience
Pete is a partner in our Dispute Resolution team. He has significant experience advising established, national and international Media and Retail clients about a range of operational issues including contractual matters relating to distribution and supply and contentious data and Intellectual Property, as well as advising both funds and Private Equity owned portfolio companies about matters relating to their growth including shareholder issues and dispute adjacent to share or asset purchases such as warranty claims and deferred consideration.
Pete’s recent career highlight came when he supported Guernsey lead counsel in a dispute for hundreds of millions of pounds relating to unfair prejudice petition brought by minority PE shareholders in an entity behind successful exchange traded funds.
Pete strives to build relationships with clients that allow him to deliver bespoke solutions that achieve the desired outcome, rather than a ‘pre-packaged’ approach.
Pete spends his spare time (and money) eating ice cream on the beach with his young kids, and burns off the ice cream with weekly five-a-side football and CrossFit.
Accolades
- Post Graduate Certificate in sports law, Kings College London
- Speaks German and French
- Team winners of the Regional Legal Adviser of the Year at the Real Deals Private Equity Awards in 2020 and 2024
