Licensing

Lewis is increasingly instructed in licencing cases, chiefly across the vehicles, gaming and food and hospitality industries. He has acted in multiple cases where breaches of the Licencing Act were alleged, including criminal proceedings and proceedings for closure orders.

He has acted for the appellant driver in TFL licensing appeals, for a national supermarket chain in food safety proceedings, and has expertise in the Gambling Act 2005 and regulatory action by the Gambling Commission. Lewis assisted the legal team for the corporate defendant in the first civil case brought under modern slavery legislation in the High Court.

Lewis has acted as a legal clerk for the Phone-Paid Services Authority, the licencing authority acting under OFCOM to regulate phone-paid services. He has dealt with cases involving seven figure fines, and having drafted decisions on behalf of panels is well placed to understand the PSA’s decision-making process and offer representation to individuals and corporations before the PSA.
