Dispute Resolution
Dominic Holden, Matt Green
April 2026
We are proud to be co-hosting two sessions on Wednesday 3 and Friday 5 June, alongside our co-hosts 33 Chancery Lane and Brick Court Chambers.
From Data to Property: Recovering Digital Assets in Modern Law.
We are partnering with 33 Chancery Lane, a specialist set of Chambers with a leading reputation in civil and criminal asset recovery, commercial, and financial wrongdoing, in hosting a presentation titled ‘From Data to Property: Recovering Digital Assets in Modern Law’.
In this, Partner Matt Green and Barrister Flavia Kenyon will examine how crypto assets came to be recognised as property through civil and criminal case law, culminating in the Property (Digital Assets etc) Act 2025. Drawing on precedent-setting matters in which they were instructed, they will explore the shift from treating digital assets as data to recognising them as proprietary objects capable of ownership, tracing, freezing, and recovery.
They will also share practical experience from complex recovery cases, including urgent injunctions, disclosure against exchanges, cross-border enforcement, and evidential challenges, offering strategic insights into navigating judicial processes and technical issues in high-value digital asset disputes.
The presentation will take place at 9:00-10:30am on Wednesday 3 June at 30 Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London, WC2A 3PD.

Turning the tables on hackers: Strategic tools for victims of hacking and fraud
We are partnering with Brick Court Chambers, one of the leading sets of barristers’ chambers in the UK, having a strong reputation for Commercial, Competition, Public and International/EU law, in hosting a presentation titled ‘Turning the tables on hackers: Strategic tools for victims of hacking and fraud’.
In this, Partner Dominic Holden and Barrister Hugo Leith will explore how established civil causes of action and disclosure tools are being repurposed to investigate cyber enabled wrongdoing and recover digital assets internationally. The presentation will conclude with the practical realities of cyber disputes, emergency relief, parallel proceedings, enforcement challenges, and the ethical responsibilities of advisers operating in crisis situations.
The presentation will take place at 2:00-3:30pm on Friday 5 June at 7-8 Essex Street, London. WC2R 3LD.
