Spear’s Review

A full-service family lawyer, Broadfield’s Anna Stanworth has significant experience of financial remedies, cohabitation disputes and private children law, as well as separation agreements and prenuptial agreements.

Stanworth principally acts for HNW individuals and often brings in accountants, international tax advisers and trusts and pension experts in order to expand her offering to meet the demands of the complexities that arise from HNW asset holdings.

Increasingly, Stanworth is seeing matters settle out of court, especially where this client base is concerned. Stanworth attributes this shift to the ‘risk of reporting’. She says: ‘[clients are] trying to do everything they can behind the scenes to ensure that it doesn’t have to go to a contested final hearing.’
