Languages: Chinese (fluent)

Alex has a busy practice across Chambers’ core areas of shipping, commercial arbitration/litigation, and public international law (including investor-State arbitration). He has been involved in arbitrations under a variety of institutional rules, including LMAA, GAFTA, LCIA, ICC, SIAC, and ICSID, as well as proceedings in the Commercial Court. He is regularly instructed as sole counsel, but equally enjoys working as part of a team.

Prior to joining Chambers, Alex studied law at the University of Oxford, where he came first in his year overall and won numerous subject prizes and scholarships. He maintains a strong academic interest in the law; he enjoys attending academic conferences, and his contributions have been published in leading journals such as the Law Quarterly Review, Lloyd’s Maritime and Commercial Law Quarterly, and the Journal of International Arbitration.

Alex is fluent in Mandarin Chinese, having grown up in Singapore, and maintains a keen interest in the Asian markets.
