Henry HoodHunters Law LLP

Commercially savvy but with high levels of emotional intelligence‘, the Hunters Law LLP team has recently grown with the addition of Alex Brereton from Mishcon de Reya LLP and Maria Wright from Children and Families Across Borders in February 2024; Brereton ‘brings a sure-footed, enthusiastic and knowledgeable approach‘ to complex financial proceedings. ‘Indomitable’ team head Henry Hood has a particular specialism in cases involving landed estates and farms, while Richard Kershaw offers ‘unparalleled’ expertise in private equity cases. Jo Carr-West is recommended for her mediation work, Olivia Piercy‘s domestic abuse work is particularly noted, and Amy Scollan is experienced in finance cases involving complex trust structures. The practice also gained the expertise of Amy Rowe in 2024, who added notable international children law expertise.
