Matthew Kurzeja | Fieldfisher
Skip to main content
I qualified into the Manchester Dispute Resolution team on completion of my training contract with Fieldfisher.   Throughout my time with the team, I have worked with a number of national companies, as well as private individuals in respect of a variety of disputes. 
 
I am an avid gamer and have a particular interest in the Tech sector as a result.  I have excellent connections with my colleagues in the Tech & Privacy team, having spent six months of my training contract within this department.  During this time, I also spent three months on secondment with a multinational tech company and so I have gained a wealth of understanding as to the demands that our tech clients face. 
 
I have been involved in a claim in the High Court, which centred on whether a third-party investor, who in return for a share of equity in the company would produce a tailored web-application for the production of medico-legal reports, had acted as a de-facto director and had breached their resultant duties.  The claim was successful in establishing liability on the part of the individual.
 
In addition to supporting existing clients, I also have an interest in working with SMEs and start-up companies, as I understand the benefit that these companies.  I am currently closing working with a company who have developed a revenue sharing platform, to be used on the blockchain.
 
Finally, I am responsible for introducing and developing our partnership with the University of Manchester, Legal Advice Centre, which aims to offer free legal advice to those within the local Manchester community (further information available here).
