Kofi Mills-Bampoe opens a new window

Partner


I am a dispute resolution partner. I act for clients in complex commercial disputes, often involving shareholder actions, civil fraud, or serious contractual issues.


Kofi is a solicitor advocate with significant experience of representing clients in high-value contentious matters, including court, arbitration and mediation proceedings across a range of industries.  Kofi has particular expertise in High Court claims involving civil fraud or shareholder issues, having successfully acted for many corporates and individuals to obtain and enforce both final judgments and interim relief.

Kofi’s practice also covers disputes involving breach of warranty, insolvency issues, director misfeasance and breach of duty, professional negligence, complex financial products and related regulatory issues.  Kofi advises clients in sectors including banking, private equity, energy, manufacturing and media, though he has particular experience of acting both for and against financial institutions and investment companies.

Kofi joined Fox Williams in 2023 from a leading disputes-only firm, where he acted on a range of litigation and arbitration matters across various jurisdictions.  Kofi also previously worked at a specialist fraud litigation firm, leading the conduct of large-scale freezing injunctions, asset recovery and jurisdictional disputes.  Prior to this, Kofi spent over a decade working in the dispute resolution teams at Macfarlanes and Linklaters, where he also trained.
