Paul was formerly a Senior Solicitor at PwC Legal where he led their UK Commercial Litigation team. His experience also includes five years within SJ Berwin's Dispute Resolution Department, and five and a half years in the Commercial Litigation department at Simmons & Simmons, where he also trained and qualified.
