Philip has a commanding presence in court and adapts his style of submissions depending on the Judge who is hearing the case; he has an authoritative manner in putting forward the legal submissions but is also willing to listen and respond to points put forward by the Judge.
Philip works closely with the legal team and client to develop the strategy and also to ensure that all aspects of the case are considered and properly implemented to ensure a successful outcome.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Philip to advise on any high value complex commercial litigation.

Russian businessmen dispute in the BVI
Philip Marshall QC represents the defendants and claimants by way of counterclaim and ancillary claim in proceedings in the BVI, in a dispute worth circa US$1 billion between two prominent Russian businessmen and associated parties concerning a joint venture in relation to various power generation and distribution assets in Russia (Renova Industries Ltd & ors v Emmerson International Corporation & ors). The proceedings involve contractual claims and claims for breach of trust and dishonest assistance, deceit, conspiracy to injure and other economic torts. Freezing and disclosure orders have been obtained, and the case has provided the first major decision in the BVI on disclosure to assist a decision whether to apply for a freezing order.
