Biography

Kevin is an Associate in the London office experienced in international arbitration.

Kevin has acted for claimants and respondents in commercial arbitration and investment arbitration proceedings conducted under the ICC, LCIA, HKIAC, SIAC, ICSID and UNCITRAL rules, and in arbitration-related court proceedings in England & Wales, Hong Kong SAR and (on an advisory basis) the United States. These proceedings involve a range of governing laws (including the laws of England & Wales, the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong SAR, Russia, New York and California) and concern the banking, energy (carbon-based and renewable), construction, real estate, corporate technology, telecommunications and health supplement sectors.

Kevin publishes articles and blogs on international arbitration regularly. In particular, his article with partner, George Burn, on the availability of orders against non-party to arbitration under Section 44 of the English Arbitration Act of 1996 was explicitly referred to by the UK Law Commission in its 2022/2023 consultations to review the Act. Kevin is also a co-author of the chapter on “The Definition of Investor in Investment Treaty Arbitration” in the “Handbook of International Investment Law and Policy”.
