Commercial

Alice Horn is a barrister specialising in complex commercial litigation and arbitration, with a practice encompassing high-value contract disputes, fraud, and matters involving regulatory and public bodies.

Before coming to the Bar, Alice was a Judicial Assistant in the Commercial Court, TCC and Admiralty Courts of the High Court, where she worked closely with Mrs Justice Jefford, Mr Justice Waksman, Mr Justice Jacobs, Mr Justice Andrew Baker and Mr Justice Robin Knowles. In that role, she assisted on a wide range of high-value and complex disputes, including matters involving international commerce, procurement, construction, injunctions, case management, and issues arising in the context of arbitral proceedings.

Since completing her pupillage at 3PB in October 2024, Alice has acted in a variety of commercial disputes, reflecting her growing experience across fraud and regulatory matters, IT and services contracts, healthcare staffing arrangements, local authority commercial issues, financial lending, property management agreements, and cases in the agricultural sector.

Recent and Ongoing Work

  • Acting for a national funding body in a dispute concerning the alleged misappropriation of funds, raising questions of fraud, procedural fairness, and the registration of industry fraud markers.
  • Representing a digital services company in a contractual claim for unpaid IT services fees.
  • Acting in a financial dispute concerning whether sums advanced by the claimants constituted loan agreements or the purchase of gold bars.
  • Representing a defendant in proceedings concerning a Guaranteed Rent Management Agreement, involving issues of termination, property damage, and unpaid fees.
  • Acting for a healthcare staffing provider in a subcontracting dispute concerning the supply of nurses to a care trust.
  • Representing a local authority in a business rates liability dispute.
  • Acting for a claimant in a professional negligence claim against solicitors arising from a residential property transaction.
  • Defending a company in the agricultural sector in contractual proceedings concerning the supply and distribution of poultry.

Alice brings to her practice a decade of prior experience in brand strategy and behavioural science research, including running her own consultancy for multinational clients in the technology, automotive, financial and consumer goods sectors. This background means she is adept at understanding not only the legal issues at stake but also the wider commercial, reputational, and stakeholder implications for her clients.
