Pump Court is delighted to announce that Jennifer Lee has been ranked as one of the best family law barristers for high-net-worth clients in the UK in the Spear’s 500 Legal Indices 2024.
Listed as a “name to know”, Jennifer has been ranked in the index as one of the ‘Top Recommended’ barristers for her work in financial remedies and taxation, and in complex children (modern families). Jennifer told Spear’s: ‘My practice is mainly matrimonial finance. A lot of it concerns cases with international elements, either assets overseas, or where there are disputes about whether England is the correct jurisdiction, or whether a foreign marriage is recognised in England. There are often complications around tax.’ Modern families and children law are another specialism (see for example the landmark Court of Appeal case of Re S (Children: Parentage and Jurisdiction) [2023] EWCA Civ 987)). ‘I’ve been very lucky in coming to the bar in 2007. I came from a commercial arbitration background, but when I started my pupillage I realised that there’s no better, more exciting and boundary-pushing area of law than family. My first pupil master was a financial remedy specialist, and I was hooked from day one.’ Read Jennifer’s full profile at Spears500.com.
