PROFILE

Matthew joined JHA in 2018 as an Associate, having qualified as a solicitor in 2013. He undertakes high-value and complex international arbitration, litigation and investigations. His work crosses a number of sectors, with recent cases including a banking arbitration under the LCIA rules, investor-State disputes under the ICSID Convention, a contract claim concerning the supply of telecommunication services in Latin America, and a state aid complaint arising from the differential taxation of international financial institutions.
