McKinney, Bancroft & Hughes fields a dispute resolution team that has a strong track record appearing at courts of first instance, as well as every appellate court inclusive of the Privy Council. Commercial and trusts disputes are a particular forte, and the insolvency litigation group is also held in high regard. At the helm of the practice senior litigator John Willson KC has extensive commercial litigation practice, as well as being an active arbitrator. Sean Moree KC comes with client recommendation as 'very good with both judges and clients', and Timothy Eneas KC is the contact to note for real estate disputes. Kevin Moree is the firm's go-to when it comes to contentious tax matters, and with a commercial litigation and trusts focus, Erin Hill stands out among a deep pool of more junior lawyers.
