Caroline Park

Spear’s Review

Partner Caroline Park joined Hughes Fowler Carruthers in 2008 from Freshfields, where she trained as a tax specialist, and rose rapidly to become HFC’s first internal promotion to partnership in 10 years.

This training readied her for the complex corporate structures which arise in high-end (and often multi-jurisdictional) divorce work. ‘My job is to protect my clients,’ she says. ‘I fight their corner, defend their interests and get them through what can be a tumultuous process of divorce, with their dignity intact and energy restored for the next chapter of their lives.’

Park also specialises in pre- and post-nuptial agreements and disputes involving children. Clients include entrepreneurs, senior bankers, lawyers, professionals and their spouses.

Park achieves these with admirable composure and is a particularly skilled negotiator. Her clients are fiercely loyal to her and value her drive and tenacity, while peers highlight she is supremely bright, super organised and calm and devout in the furthering of her client’s best case. Sought-after and routinely instructed in UHNW matters, Park has cemented her position as one of the go-to lawyers of her generation. She is frequently engaged in the most complex, cross-jurisdictional divorce and financial remedy cases.
