Spear’s Review

Tim Bishop KC of 1 Hare Court is known within the profession as one of the top specialists in high-value financial remedy cases. ‘He is a highly persuasive advocate, with outstanding judgement and the ability to give unequivocal advice,’ an industry leader tells Spear’s, pointing to Bishop’s enviable track record in jurisdiction disputes and HNW/UHNW nuptial agreements.

A speed-dial contact for London’s Magic Circle firms, Bishop’s reported cases include complex offshore disputes and high-profile matrimonial cases with keen media interest. One example is the financial settlement case between Petra Ecclestone and her ex-husband, James Stunt, which involved dividing assets rumoured to reach £15 billion.

Whatever the case, peers often commend his ability to maintain a calm head, as well as his highly accessible manner with clients.
