Bryan Jones

Spear’s Review

Family law all-rounder Bryan Jones is an expert in acting for international HNWs in financial and children matters, including Children Act proceedings.

Jones joined Hughes Fowler Carruthers in 2010, amassing experience in heavily litigated HNW divorces in the High Court and the Court of Appeal. He became a partner in April 2018. Recent cases have involved couples with assets in the tens and hundreds of millions of pounds, involving international jurisdictions and complex wealth structures on all sides. Clients are often in the public eye and privacy is paramount.

Founded in 2001, HFC is renowned for its success in dealing with complex financial matters. ‘We are well-known for our experience in the seeking and obtaining of asset freezing injunctions that affect assets held overseas and we understand exactly how to address the question of enforcement of English court orders abroad,’ says the firm.

Instructed by international billionaires and other high-profile individuals, he is known for his ‘fine instincts and a talent for forensic analysis’ and being ‘very cool under fire’, Jones is sought after by clients for his tactical and strategic skill, as well as the doggedness with which he fights for his clients. His cases are invariably complex and require the incisive approach he brings to them.
