Lars Gladhaug

Lars Gladhaug was called to the Bar in 2018 and became a tenant at Keating Chambers in 2023, following the successful completion of his pupillage.

During his pupillage at Keating, Lars gained particular experience of High Court adjudication matters (enforcement and resisting enforcement). He also gained experience of defect claims and bond claims, along with litigation matters across the spectrum of Chambers’ specialisms. He has worked on matters involving JCT and NEC standard form contracts, as well as bespoke agreements.

Lars was the winner of the Society for Construction Law’s 2022 SCL Hudson Prize, for his paper on recent developments in the law relating to building safety and the Defective Premises Act of 1972.

Before joining Keating, Lars worked as in-house counsel for a market-leading financial technology company based in London, where he was involved in or responsible for a wide range of matters including contract drafting and negotiations, strategic outsourcings, assurance audits, financing, and submissions to financial and economic regulators.

Lars accepts instructions to advise, draft pleadings and represent clients in relation to a broad range of commercial matters, with an emphasis on construction and engineering, energy, offshore construction, and technology disputes.
