Kings Chambers handles large-scale commercial disputes for national clients with ease, and is praised as ‘the pre-eminent set in Manchester for valuable commercial litigation’. Its members are well-equipped to expertly handle cases in domestic and international courts and arbitral venues. It is home to Andrew Grantham KC, who boasts expertise in a range of commercial disputes, and David Casement KC is another active silk in this arena. Lesley Anderson KC is a notable name who has appeared before the Supreme Court several times over the last few years. Among the juniors Martin Budworth acted for the claimant in Oakwell v BFC Investment Company, which concerned a claim for several million in unpaid consideration pursuant to Chinese-American investors purchasing Barnsley Football Club. Ben Harding has an increasingly active practice in the injunctive work space, while Aidan Reay is noted for his frequent appearances in the High Court. Neil Berragan predominantly appears before the business and property courts and is often sought after for urgent interim applications. He is acting for the claimant in Kip McGrath Global Pty Ltd v Justine & Colin Gray and KMM Learning LLP, which concerns an Australian company claiming for the breach of a franchise agreement, and an interim injunction was successfully obtained to prevent the defendant from further breaching non-compete covenants.
