Wilson has over 17 years of experience as a commercial barrister. He started his career at the Hong Kong Bar, where he practised from Temple Chambers (“undoubtedly the top set in Hong Kong”, Legal 500); he then cross-qualified at the English Bar in 2022 and joined Serle Court. He has a busy practice focusing on complex commercial and chancery litigation, with particular expertise in insolvency, company, contract, trusts and probate disputes. In recent years, his work has taken on an increasingly international dimension, being instructed in proceedings in England, BVI, the Cayman Islands, Jersey, and Hong Kong.

He has been regularly ranked as a leading commercial junior in Chambers & Partners, Legal 500, and Lexology Index, and has been recognised as “an excellent advocate, with a calm, approachable and unflappable manner in court” (Legal 500, 2025). Wilson has significant experience both as sole advocate and junior counsel (including multiple appearances at the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal, and often appearing against silks), and has worked on some of the most high-profile cases in Hong Kong and other jurisdictions.

In England, he is on the Attorney General’s B Panel of Counsel. He is also a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (FCIArb), a Fellow of the Hong Kong Institute of Arbitrators (FHKIArb), and holds the Diploma in International Commercial Arbitration from CIArb.
