Spear’s Review
Claire-Marie Cornford joined Irwin Mitchell in November 2017, having been headhunted from her previous role at Mishcon de Reya, to join the firm’s newly formed private wealth division. As head of will, trust and estate disputes in London, she leads a dedicated team of lawyers, including a second partner who specialises in Court of Protection cases.
Cornford regularly acts in high-value and complex private wealth disputes for a broad range of clients, including successful entrepreneurs and business leaders, landed gentry, farmers, charities, trustees and individuals.
In addition to this, she leads Irwin Mitchell’s global UK group, a multidisciplinary and multi-office group of practitioners who focus on international private wealth work and sits on the firm’s international strategy group.
