Ian Weinstein
Brown Rudnick LLPDespite the recent retirement of Peter Bibby and the departure of Chloe Pawson Pounds, the small partner-led team at Brown Rudnick LLP maintains significant visibility in the market, chiefly as a result of the ‘conscientious and thorough’ Ian Weinstein, who is now practice head. ’Thoughtful and wise in tricky scenarios’, Weinstein regularly acts for senior executives and banks in FCA investigations and enforcements. He is also noted for his ability to ‘master even the largest and most complex financial services disputes and find the winning points’. Chloë Kealey is ’detailed and forensic’ in her representation of clients both in criminal and regulatory enforcement actions.
