Martin has many years' experience in leveraged private equity transactions, advising both institutions and management teams. He has also acted extensively for a range of listed and large private companies on M&A and joint venture work.
An English graduate from St Edmund Hall, Oxford, he qualified as a solicitor in December 1978, spending five years as an assistant at Norton Rose before joining Biddle where he became a partner in January 1985. He was head of Corporate for four years and senior partner from 1996 until its merger in 2001. He joined Taylor Wessing in May 2001 and has led its UK Leveraged Private Equity group and International Private Capital group. He was Taylor Wessing's UK senior partner from 2005-2011.
Recognised by Chambers, Martin is praised for his "intensely client-focused approach, which is combined with an encyclopaedic yet commercial knowledge of the field" and commended for his "high degree of commercial execution". The 2013 Chambers Directory refers to him as "…a highly experienced private equity lawyer who has ‘great personality and drive’."
Martin also chairs The Jane Bubear Sport Foundation which is a charity set up to provide sports kits to young people in communities under challenge and is nationally ranked in men's open slalom waterskiing.
