In addition to working as part of a counsel team in the Commercial Court, Court of Appeal and UK Supreme Court, Matthew has also appeared unled in the High Court (both King's Bench and Chancery Divisions), County Court and Magistrates' Court. Matthew has a particular interest and experience in cases involving the conflict of laws and restitution, having previously taught and published in these areas.
