Nicholas Bennett

Spear’s Review

Nicholas Bennett of 29 Bedford Row specialises in pre- and postnuptial agreements and associated matrimonial finance matters. His cases often involve companies, trusts and jurisdiction battles, and he acts for business leaders, celebrities, landed families and international HNW couples in London or overseas.

Bennett’s overseas work is of a calibre such that his firm says that he is ‘one of the few English practitioners completely comfortable with agreements involving multiple jurisdictions’. 

He also operates on behalf of businesses and trustees to put in place nuptial agreements for their staff or beneficiaries. 

Privacy is often a key concern for his clients, and Bennett notes that the very wealthy often want to ‘bypass the system completely’ through arbitration.
