"I enjoy the intellectually challenging, multi-layered nature of the work I specialise in. A large part of my practice is made up of claims which have an international angle, which means I frequently work with lawyers in overseas jurisdictions.
My clients value my clear and insightful advice, which factors in the commercial context, based on many years of experience in the field. I am thorough, measured, contactable and approachable.
Good communication is key in any client relationship - I always aim to provide concise and precise advice, simplifying complex issues to enable clients to quickly get to the heart of the matter."
Marcus's recent work highlights:
Advising Insurers on coverage in respect of the potential £100m tax liability of a well-known UK building society for alleged listing failures.
Advising Insurers on coverage in respect of the potential USD 325m liability of a Swiss bank arising from an alleged secret commissions fraud.
