Position
Kathryn is a leading senior junior in offshore litigation and has variously been described as "an outstanding lawyer, “conscientious", “commercial”, “fearless”, “level-headed”, and “a top-notch advocate”. She has extensive wide-ranging chancery expertise, though focusses primarily on contentious trusts and probate litigation, and civil fraud and asset recovery. She is qualified in Jersey law and practised there for many years, so is particularly well placed to act in cases (wherever located) concerning the Channel Islands and has a direct understanding of the dynamics of offshore practice. She loves big challenges, and teamwork, and has acted in some of the largest pieces of offshore trusts litigation of the last decade.
