Stuart Shepherd Law was formed by Stuart Shepherd and commenced business in July 2019. Stuart was in private practice as a solicitor in London for 35 years and a partner of Ince & Co for over 26 years and RPC for almost 3 years. He was Head of International Trade and Commodities at both firms. During that period Stuart’s main focus was on advising players in the various commodity markets in relation to issues arising out of their day to day physical trading activities. Having retired from RPC in June 2019 Stuart formed Stuart Shepherd Law as a vehicle to enable him to continue to advise and assist clients in the trading space. He is recognised as a leading legal advisor in the commodities field by clients and the leading legal directories; with Legal 500 noting, in its 2018 edition, Stuart has 'an encyclopaedic knowledge of shipping and commodities law and practice; his knowledge is exceptional and invaluable'. 'He is one of the stand-out lawyers in this area - very experienced, and really at the top of his game; clients flock to him and trust him because he is one of the best', remarks a client.”
