Murray Branch
Consultant
Litigation
Murray is a very experienced senior litigator regularly engaged as lead counsel in large scale commercial disputes. He is widely respected for his particular expertise in contract, company and insolvency law, and has argued cases that have created new or clarified existing law in all these areas. Murray has had extensive commercial experience prior to practising law, including management of substantial commercial litigation, which gives him an increased understanding of the litigation process from the client’s perspective. This non-law based experience means that he is able to assess the case from both a legal and commercial perspective, which helps in isolating the key issues that require resolution. One of Murray’s specialties has been the use of alternative forms of dispute resolution, with the aim of resolving disagreements without the need to resort to the courts.
Murray, has decided to step back from frontline advocacy and is now focusing on opinion work, providing dispute resolution strategy advice, and providing support and mentoring to the firm. In addition Murray is available to act as a mediator to assist other parties in resolving disputes.
