Adrian specialised in construction, engineering and technology disputes and he is was highly regarded for his expertise in professional negligence and insurance actions within these specialist areas. He took silk in 2002.

Adrian’s practice covered all aspects of law within his specialist fields, including advisory work relating to standard form and bespoke contracts; contractors’, sub-contractors’ and employers’ claims; and professional negligence claims (architects, engineers, surveyors and project managers). This work includes advisory work, drafting and of course advocacy for which he was widely regarded as a formidable opponent. He regularly appeared in the Technology and Construction Court in London and in arbitrations in many parts of the UK and abroad. Adrian also appeared in the Court of Appeal on many occasions and in the Privy Council. He has represented clients in adjudication and mediation and was himself an adjudicator and arbitrator.

Adrian became an honorary associate in June 2025.
