Mariusz welcomes instructions in commercial disputes across Chambers’ areas of practice, including the sale of goods, contracts for services, agency, bailment, and debt claims.

Mariusz benefits from his experience specialising in commercial law on the LLM, graduating with Distinction and achieving the top mark in cohort in Commercial Remedies. He has explored in detail issues relevant both to litigation and international arbitration.

Whilst working as a paralegal at a Magic Circle law firm Mariusz obtained hands-on experience of contentious matters involving businesses, including complaints concerning unfair business practices.

  • Representing the defendant in a gratuitous bailment claim concerning the loss of valuables which had been left in a coat stored in a restaurant cloakroom.
