Mills & Reeve LLP is a ‘team that is going from strength to strength’, under the able leadership of the ’stellar’ Katherine Kennedy. Kennedy often works on wealth protection matters, and routinely deals with high-net-worth financial remedy cases. She also continues to build her mediation practice. The group deftly handles a variety of complex cases with issues such as complicated business and trust structures, and highly conflicted children proceedings. Associate Stephanie Hawthorn handles complex financial and children matters, while in a ‘very good move’ associate Matthew Saunderson joined from Anthony Collins Solicitors LLP in August 2023.
