Pinsent Masons LLP

With a speciality focus on mass actions globally, the pensions disputes team at Pinsent Masons LLP acts for household-name clients on all aspects of pensions litigation and especially in Representative Beneficiary Appointments. The team also has a more niche focus in the sectors, such as the automotive and energy industries. Other areas the team excels in include rectifications, professional negligence proceedings, TPR actions, and, more recently, cyber claims and master trust litigation. The practice is led by the Manchester-based Hayley Goldstone, an expert practitioner in multiparty professional negligence claims against solicitors and actuaries, funding disputes, and Pensions Ombudsman claims. Charlotte Scholes is another key team member and a specialist in member complaints, Ombudsman proceedings, and High Court litigation. Isabel Nurse-March retired from the practice in July 2024.
