Background

Having previously worked for a leading international law firm overseas, Dirk was well placed to gain authorisation to conduct litigation when this became available to self-employed barristers in 2014. He has done so, running cases from their inception to trial, ever since, whilst continuing to undertake Direct Access work for litigants-in-person and accept instructions from solicitors in the traditional way.

Mediation & Alternative Dispute Resolution

A trained mediation advocate, Dirk is as comfortable with alternative dispute resolution as he is fighting cases through the courts.

Wide Ranging Expertise

Dirk’s practice covers the full range of commercial, business and property law. He also has particular experience of cross-border disputes/cases with an offshore aspect, as well as privacy law and data protection.
