Andrew Newbury

Spear’s Review

Andrew Newbury, a partner at Hall Brown, specialises in financial settlements on divorce, particularly when cases involve a family business or cross-border aspects. His family law practice in Manchester serves business owners, sportspeople and entertainment personalities in the north west – from the Pennines to the Fylde coast – and high-profile figures internationally and in the south east.

Newbury is recommended for his ferocious intellect and great deal of technical skill and knowledge. ‘The lion’s share of the work is financial. The real explosion these days is the sheer number of prenups,’ he says. ‘They may have accounted for 1 or 2 per cent of the work; now it’s at least 20.’

Business has ‘exceeded expectations’, he adds, in terms of caseload, turnover and growth.
