Dispute Resolution
Position
Jonathan Kelly is consistently recognized as one of the UK’s leading practitioners in the field of disputes and enforcement, and as a “litigation veteran” with 30 years in practice.
He is cited by UK and European legal directories and the media as one of “the UK’s leading banking litigators,” an “outstanding lawyer,” “esteemed litigator,” and “a formidable opponent.” He is described as a “class act…a real market leader” who is “top rated…keen and insightful, clear, concise” and “great to work with because you know he’s seen it all before.”
He has advised on a wide range of significant disputes, involving antitrust and competition, banking and financial services, corporate and private equity, regulatory enforcement and investigations, and sovereign immunity. His cases invariably involve complex multijurisdictional elements.
Career
Jonathan joined the firm as a partner in 2010 after 23 years at Simmons & Simmons, where he had trained, qualified as a solicitor in 1989, became a partner in 1995, and was head of the firm’s financial markets litigation group. He worked in Hong Kong and London while with Simmons & Simmons.
