James D'Apice, Founder & Principal Lawyer, Gravamen

About the Presenter:

Admitted as a solicitor in 2008, and after a decade and a half working at other firms including as director of a national firm, James is the principal lawyer of Gravamen. Litigation forms the backbone of James' practice however, over time, James has found himself increasingly providing advice on his clients' conduct outside of court. James' specialty is resolving disputes between co-owners, whether that resolution is by way of contested litigation or negotiated agreement. Practising in this area has required James to develop an expertise in the law relating to shareholder disputes, partnership disputes, and disputes between trustees and beneficiaries. James is the creator, founder and presenter of 'Coffee and a Case Note', a series of online videos and podcast episodes that sees James summarise up-to-the-minute cases in his specialty area and present them to camera over a cup of coffee. His method combines approachability and rigour.
