Adrian Samuel
Adrian Samuel is a Senior Associate Solicitor in the firm’s Dispute Resolution Department.
With many years of litigation experience, there are few types of disputes that Adrian has not encountered. That experience enables him to provide clients with clear, practical and commercially realistic advice from the outset. Known for being approachable, straight-talking and tenacious, he focuses on helping clients navigate difficult situations with confidence and clarity.
He recognises that litigation can be costly, stressful and disruptive, and wherever possible he looks for practical solutions that avoid unnecessary conflict. However, when a dispute cannot be avoided and a robust approach is required, clients can rely on him to fight their corner with determination and resolve.
What he enjoys most about his work is helping clients move from uncertainty and difficulty to resolution. Whether acting for individuals or businesses, he values the opportunity to solve problems and make a genuine difference during challenging times.
A favourite quote often attributed to chess master Wilhelm Steinitz reflects his approach:
“I may be an old lion, but I can bite someone’s hand off if he puts it in my mouth.”
Clients describe him as:
“Efficient, articulate and straight-talking.”
“His practical and efficient approach has helped us solve many legal challenges.”
