Mark Hands
Spear’s Review
Birmingham-based Irwin Mitchell partner Mark Hands boasts an established practice representing HNW and UHNW clients on a wide range of family law issues.
Hands is experienced in financial claims on divorce cases where assets exceed £100 million, and where international assets and trusts are involved. He has handled a great deal of cases for members of the Jewish and Asian communities in the UK, building up a niche practice in the space.
He tells Spear’s that he is also ‘regarded by many as an expert where there are allegations of narcissistic abuse, including defending allegations where these are falsely made’.
A keen football fan, he has advised several players from England’s Premier League and their ex-partners. ‘I think they value my ability to combine legal advice with an in-depth knowledge of the football industry itself,’ he says.
