We are delighted to welcome Paul Chapman to the team as our Special Counsel. Paul brings with him more than 20 years of legal experience, with a career spanning insurance litigation, commercial disputes, and complex advisory work. His depth of knowledge and long‑standing commitment to excellence make him an exceptional addition to our practice.

Paul joins us from Toomey Pegg, where he spent almost 18 years in a progression of senior roles.
