London > Corporate and commercial > Financial services: contentious
(Next Generation Partners)The ‘exceptionally strong’ team at Dentons
has ‘rich experience of extremely complex and high-value disputes’ for a varied array of clients in the sector, including asset managers, banks and brokers. As well as assisting clients in investigations before the FCA, it also acts for the regulator itself in some high-profile matters. ‘Brilliant’ team head Katharine Harle is noted for her work defending financial services clients in enforcement actions and investigations concerning market misconduct and non-financial misconduct. The ‘intellectually brilliant’ Lara Seabourne leads the firm’s relationship with the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and has consequently handled a significant amount of judicial review matters. Recently made up to partner, Zeena Saleh is ‘proving herself on bigger cases’, both for the FCA and in matters adverse to the regulator.
