Profile of IAN WHEATON
CALL 2002

Member of the Western circuit
Member of Family, Civil and Employment teams.

Practice

His practice is divided between family law, both private and public law cases, employment and civil common law matters including personal injury, professional negligence, landlord and tenant, contractual disputes and commercial matters. He practises on the south coast in Southampton, Bournemouth, Portsmouth and surrounding areas as well as regularly practising in London.

Civil and commercial matters

He lectured extensively on personal and corporate insolvency, shipping, carriage of goods and related contractual matters on professional courses, particularly in respect of agency law. He is widely experienced in commercial matters of this nature. He regularly deals with commercial disputes as well as consumer actions both involving consumer credit and stand alone matters, and landlord and tenant matters. He is also widely experienced in personal injury and clinical negligence. He has advised extensively on liability and quantum on matters ranging from the most minor to the most serious injuries and Fatal Accident Act Claims.

Interests

He is often to be found in his favourite habitat of a muddy field on a winter Saturday afternoon at the bottom of a ruck or scrum wondering about the meaning of life at the bar, and more importantly, where on earth the ball has gone as he plays rugby while the body holds out, and is currently skipper of one of the (more) senior sides at Trojans Rugby Club in Southampton.

He plays the slightly more refined activity of tennis, and is a member of the Hampshire Tennis and Health club in Southampton.
