Partner

Jon acts for banks and other financial institutions, advising them on high-profile regulatory investigations, enforcement proceedings and litigation.

Prior to re-joining Herbert Smith Freehills as a senior associate, he spent four years as a senior member of an investment bank's litigation and regulatory investigation department, working closely with all business lines including FX, capital markets, and commodities. Through his time in-house Jon understands first-hand a client's needs: he provides focused and clear advice, helping clients navigate often challenging circumstances.

Jon has advised clients on some of the most high profile regulatory investigations, including the cross-border investigation into the FX market, and others conducted by the FCA, SFO, DOJ, SEC and CFTC.

He has also advised clients on significant disputes, most recently involving the duties of an arranger bank in a debt capital market transaction.
