Bio

I am a Partner in the Litigation team in our Cayman Islands office. I have practised with the firm in the Cayman Islands since the beginning of 2008. Over the last 15 years I have acted in many of the largest and most complex cases to be litigated in the Cayman Islands. I act for the Algosaibi family in their on-going claims against Maan Al Sanea and his companies, successfully obtaining a US$2.5 billion judgment against Mr Al Sanea and settling certain claims. I also act for the liquidators of the Madoff impacted Primeo fund, in successfully resolving litigation against the Trustee in New York and the Cayman Islands, the investment manager, the Herald feeder fund – where the Privy Council has found in favour of Primeo on both the creditor and shareholder distribution issues - and in the on-going litigation against the administrator and custodian. I have acted in a number of precedent setting fund liquidations (including Lancelot, Belmont and Heriot), large fraud cases (including Madoff, Dynamic Decisions, Fletcher and Alpha Re) and high profile restructurings (including Arcapita, CEVA, Eircom, Ocean Rig and Tailored Brands). I am regularly instructed to make urgent applications to obtain interim relief and/or to appoint provisional liquidators/receivers. Prior to joining Mourant, I worked in London as a Partner at Matthew Arnold & Baldwin (now Dentons) and before that at Allen & Overy. I have extensive experience in financial services litigation and insolvency matters, and have also worked in-house at UBS and Barclays.
