Robert Stokell specialises in substantial construction and engineering disputes, product liability, professional negligence and property damage. He is well placed to advise where a case raises issues in more than one of these areas. He appears regularly in the High Court (particularly the TCC) and has acted in the Court of Appeal, in adjudication, arbitration, mediation and settlement meetings. Robert is the Treasurer of the Technology and Construction Bar Association (TECBAR) and he is a TECBAR accredited adjudicator.
The Legal 500 ranks Robert as a Leading Junior in Construction, adding that: “Rob [is] a go-to barrister on construction and product liability disputes. He is fiercely intelligent and highly organised” (2023); “Robert is good at the details, thoughtful and measured in his advice, and very good on paper” (2024); and “Robert has great attention to detail and a calm and reasoned approach” (2025).
