I focus on creating value for UK and international clients by helping them achieve their business objectives and specialise in advising on supply chain agreements, in particular in the fashion and tech industries.


Stephen specialises in advising on the entering into and termination of supply chain agreements, in particular for fashion, tech and life sciences clients. Much of Stephen’s work is international.

Stephen established and leads Fox Williams’ agentlaw team and developed www.agentlaw.co.uk, a Fox Williams website dedicated to agency and distribution law.

Stephen is involved in advising many of Fox Williams’ fashion clients. Stephen drove forward the creation of www.fashionlaw.co.uk and now chairs our Fashion Law Group. He was a member of the team which advised Superdry Plc, in connection with its institutional and retail share offerings which resulted in it listing on the London Stock Exchange. He has twice acted as a judge for the Drapers Awards.

A specialist area of Stephen’s practice concerns the international development of a number of leading independent schools and education companies including North London Collegiate School, Wellington College and King’s Group. Advice has been given by Stephen and his team in respect of the establishment of schools throughout Asia and the Gulf as well as in Europe and West Africa.

Stephen also heads the ESG Group at Fox Williams.

Over the years clients and partners have given Stephen the nicknames of “The Barracuda” and “The Rottweiler”.
