Experience:
Barry practices in commercial and civil litigation particularly in international arbitration, construction (adjudication) and property related disputes.
He is a member of the Ciarb and is a qualified mediator.
He started his legal career as a common law practitioner. In thirty-five years of practice there are few areas of law where he has not been instructed.
His experience taught him that the techniques of successful civil litigation cross over from one area of law to the others, for example general commercial disputes, partnership disputes and land and building disputes (including planning) which of course feed into the international arbitration cases. Notably, he has also represented claimants and defendants in defamation proceedings.
He lectures to commercial lawyers and businesses in the UK and abroad on the subject of International Arbitration, most recently in Tbilisi (Georgia) but also in Singapore (when attending SIAC), Kuala Lumpur, Warsaw and Budapest. He is available to lecture on specific areas or issues within each of his practice.
