Blue Elliott
Senior Counsel
Blue is an experienced commercial litigator who advises clients on complex and high-value commercial disputes, including High Court litigation and arbitration.
She acts for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and corporate clients on high-value and often sensitive matters. Her practice has a particular emphasis on complex, high-stakes disputes involving luxury assets – including superyachts, private jets, jewellery, and valuable collectibles. Her practice encompasses a broad range of contentious issues, with expertise in cross-border enforcement, jurisdictional challenges, and asset recovery.
In addition, Blue is highly regarded in cases involving civil fraud and asset recovery, with experience in advising in relation to associated issues such as freezing orders and jurisdiction challenges related to those proceedings. Recent experience includes claims involving the misuse of confidential information involving financial institutions and investment funds, as well as allegations of fraudulent misappropriation of corporate funds leading to the collapse of a FTSE 100 company and the issue of multi-billion-dollar legal proceedings in both the High Court and the Abu Dhabi Global Market Courts.
Alongside this, Blue regularly advises clients in relation to all aspects of contractual disputes, including breach of contract, specific performance claims and enforcement action. She has extensive knowledge and a particular interest in the superyacht and leisure marine industry, as well as the aviation sector.
Blue has a pragmatic and commercially focused approach to litigation and works closely with her clients to provide sound strategic and tactical advice and expert legal analysis. She also works closely with specialists around the firm, including colleagues with a focus on banking and finance, corporate and reputation management, in order to provide clients with a full-service approach to managing disputes and risk.
