Harry Stewart

I am a lawyer in Fladgate’s Dispute Resolution team, specialising in complex, high value disputes. While I have a particular focus on banking and financial markets litigation, I regularly represent companies and individuals in commercial disputes across a range of sectors, often involving an international element.

I act for corporate and private clients in a broad range of sectors who are involved in commercial litigation, whether as claimant or defendant in the proceedings.

My role as a litigator involves quickly getting to grips with a client’s business and gaining a thorough understanding of the events underlying the dispute. Clients trust me to put forward their best case at all times, often in fast-moving circumstances that require strategic flexibility, while helping them to navigate court processes and deadlines in an efficient and timely manner.

Outside of the office, as a keen linguist I like to travel whenever I get the opportunity. I also enjoy cooking and sports, and am equally happy in a good restaurant or on the tennis court, although preferably not in that order.
