Charles Russell Speechlys is proud to announce it has won ‘Family Law Legal Team of the Year’ at the WealthBriefing European Awards.

The fourteenth edition of the WealthBriefing European awards, held in Grosvenor Square, London, recognises excellence and innovation across the European wealth management sector. WealthBriefing has reported on family office and wealth management sector news for over 20 years.

This recognition demonstrates our expertise advising individuals and families on the full spectrum of family law, highlighting the work of our London, Guildford, Geneva, and Milan offices. Our Family team are recognised for delivering a high level of service, discretion and expertise in the resolution of complex, high-value and often cross-border family disputes.

Shona Alexander, Family Partner, says:

We are thrilled that WealthBriefing has recognised us as ‘Family Law Legal Team of the Year’. Our team is going from strength to strength, and this recognition is a reflection of the trust our clients hold in our expertise. We are often instructed on leading and landmark cases, and our growing global footprint enhances our ability and reputation to support clients on cross-border cases across numerous legal jurisdictions. Whether our clients seek mediation, arbitration and other non-court dispute resolution options – or choose to instruct our robust litigation capability – our team brings the collective experience, dedication and discretion needed to guide them through one of life’s most challenging moments.

William Longrigg, Partner and Head of Family, adds:

We are one of the largest and longest-established family law teams in the world and this collective accolade showcases the breadth and depth of expertise deployed by our Family team. We represent clients in multi-faceted financial, marital, children and parentage matters, many of which are international and cross-disciplinary in nature, and take pride in combining robust litigation expertise with sophisticated settlement strategies to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients whilst minimising conflict, cost and reputational risk. My congratulations to all for this well-deserved recognition.
