Stuart Wright

Stuart qualified as an ADR Group Accredited Civil & Commercial Mediator in 2014. Since then, he has successfully mediated a wide range of civil & commercial disputes and, together with HH Keith Hollis, spearheaded the development of chambers’ separate mediation brand ‘Disputes Mediated’. His longstanding background as a civil barrister and his ability to identify and focus on the issues at the heart of the dispute and to identify and help parties overcome barriers to settlement, together with his personable manner, has repeatedly won him praise from mediation clients.

Stuart has extensive experience in a wide variety of Property Law matters, with a particular emphasis on Landlord & Tenant disputes (business and residential). Stuart is regularly instructed in actions in both the County Court and the First-Tier Tribunal (Property Chamber), including cases involving business tenancies, residential tenancies, leasehold enfranchisement, service charge disputes, management issues, possession actions, and disrepair disputes.

Over recent years Stuart has developed an increased focus on contractual disputes involving a wide range of business / commercial and private matters and has achieved independent directory recognition for his work. Stuart has been praised for his insightfulness for commercial sensitivities and business expediency. Stuart takes pride in his pragmatic approach to resolving disputes and provides thorough, practical and where appropriate innovative advice – which often gets results.

During his first 15 years as a barrister, Stuart had a substantial personal injury and inquest practice. He has retained his inquest practice to this day and continues to receive regular instructions to act for families and various local authorities and NHS trusts especially in complex or sensitive cases. His sensible and compassionate approach is supported by his first-rate client care.
