Drawing on extensive international experience, Brown Rudnick LLP is regularly called upon to act against major financial institutions, multinationals and sovereigns, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Securities claims under section 90 and 90a of FSMA are another area of expertise for the ‘talented and dedicated’ team. Jane Colston co-heads the group, boasting an established fraud practice, alongside Neill Shrimpton, who brings extensive offshore litigation experience to the team. The practice was strengthened with the addition in November 2023 of ’bright, pragmatic and direct’ Derval Walsh, an expert in investment and retail banking disputes. Jessica Lee and Robin Pickworth, who joined in October 2023, are other key contacts in the team.
