Kennedys has expanded its commercial disputes offering with the appointment of Samson Spanier as a partner in its London office. Spanier (pictured, left) joins from Norton Rose Fulbright and brings extensive experience in high-value, cross-border disputes.
He specialises in commercial litigation, international arbitration, contentious insolvency and financial disputes, advising on matters including share purchase agreements, supply of services, sale of goods and commodities, insolvency processes, financial contracts and commercial fraud. He is recognised in Legal 500 UK 2026 for ‘always having one last creative solution up his sleeve’.
Andy Brown (right), global co-head of corporate and commercial and UK divisional head, said Spanier will be ‘an excellent addition to our commercial disputes team’, adding that his arrival ‘further strengthens our ability to deliver strategic and commercially focused solutions’.
Spanier said joining Kennedys was ‘a great opportunity to leverage my experience in international commercial disputes’ within a firm known for its ‘global reach and collaborative approach’, as he looks forward to supporting the firm’s continued growth.
