Praised as ‘the strongest matrimonial team in London – and indeed the UK’, Stewarts Law LLP’s family team boasts ‘several big hitting partners and strength in depth at all levels’. Department head and ‘master strategist’ Stephen Foster is recommended as a go-to for ‘high value, multi jurisdictional and complicated matters’. ‘Excellent negotiator’ Debbie Chism is highlighted for her collaborative practice, while Matthew Humphries’ litigation experience stands out. For international matters, in particular those in the US, Emma Hatley is a go-to; Toby Atkinson also sought after for these issues. Richard Hogwood is ‘the mastermind of pre and post nups’, valued for his ’thoughtful and empathetic approach‘. Carly Kinch often handles matters involving trusts, family businesses and inherited wealth, while Lucy Stewart-Gould spearheads the team’s links with Hong Kong and the Middle East. Lewis Powers is also recommended, and Helen Ward remains a key figure in the team.
