Alison Hawes - Burges Salmon LLP
Within: Family
Burges Salmon LLP is ‘in a league of its own', according to clients. Asset protection - particularly where international or offshore assets are involved - is the firm’s forte. Practice head Sarah Hoskinson specialises in international divorce cases: her highlights included advising a non-domiciled wife on a complex consent order and international tax advice regarding a BVI company in a Guernsey-based trust; a financial dispute regarding a £67m landed estate; and a £30m pre- and post-nuptial agreement concerning inherited and illiquid assets. Consultant Alison Hawes - a new recruit from Irwin Mitchell last year - is ‘a strategic, great negotiator’ who is experienced handling complex, high-value financial matters arising from relationship breakdown; she recently acted for a husband in a £75m divorce settlement involving international properties, which also included multi-generational asset protection via prenuptial agreement. ‘Pragmatic’ senior associate Nicky Howarth handles private children's law and cross-border cases, and recently advised a husband in €15m French divorce proceedings with complex cross-border children and financial elements.
