Senior Associate
Commercial Litigation

Tom helps corporate clients with contractual disputes including the sale and hire of goods litigation, contentious insolvency (such as misfeasance claims and reviewable transactions), misrepresentation claims; contested debt claims; and costs recovery. He also has experience with banking and financial litigation having acted for a range of clients in respect of the mis-selling of Interest Rate Swap derivate products. Whilst primarily helping businesses clients, Tom is also comfortable advising on consumer litigation and helping individuals with their disputes.

There have been several high-profile mis-selling scandals in recent years, of which Tom spearheaded Chandler Ray’s successful recovery of millions of pounds for commercial and individual clients alike, including winning over £1M for client’s who were victims of timeshare fraud.

“My aim is to provide an effective service to business clients which takes account of commercial realities including keeping legal costs to an acceptable level. Essential to this is providing focused and practical advice to resolve their dispute”. Tom Silverwood-Cope

It’s not all about work
