His practice focuses on real property, enfranchisement, residential and commercial landlord and tenant law, alongside commercial and company disputes. He appears as sole counsel and as part of a team in the High Court, County Court and First-tier Tribunal. 

Hugh regularly acts in high-profile cases. In 2025 and 2026, he appeared five times in the Court of Appeal in significant cases concerning damages for disrepair, the scope of the Building Safety Act 2022, the construction of a shareholders’ agreement and the court’s jurisdiction in bankruptcy proceedings.
