Spear’s Review

Jane Keir was nominated for Family Lawyer of the Year at the 2019 Spear’s Awards and has been featured in the Law Society Gazette for a number of stellar cases, including one that saw her secure £400,000 in compensation for her client, a law firm partner who sacrificed her career for her family, in RC v JC [2020]. Another case that helped to burnish Keir’s stellar reputation in family law was the leading financial and trust case of Daga v Daga (Bangur) [2018].

She notes the breadth of service that her firm, Kingsley Napley, can offer. ‘We can just walk down the stairs and there’s the best immigration team in the country,’ Keir says, offering but one example. ‘So if we have someone who is about to get divorced and they’re terrified they’re about to lose their right to stay in the UK, we can resolve that really quickly.’
