David Greer

Spear’s Review

David Greer left Schillings in 2019 after 15 years at the firm to co-found Katz Partners alongside Schillings colleagues Davina Katz and Emily Kapoor.

‘I believe in giving clients straightforward, real-world advice and delivering holistic solutions which go beyond the merely legal but combine commercial, tax and PR/reputation considerations,’ he says.

Indeed, Greer not only has experience in family law but also in the law of privacy. ‘Having acted in many of the leading privacy cases during my career at Schillings, I am experienced in managing and leveraging media interest in high profile cases,’ he says. All of this speaks to Greer’s aim ‘to get the very best possible result for a client and, while doing so, ensuring that the client feels protected, supported and, above all, understood’.

Adviser Profile

Specialising in complex divorce and children’s work, David Greer is also a trained mediator and collaborative lawyer. A founding partner of Katz Partners, he is ‘driven by an unwavering commitment to getting the right outcome for every client, leaving no stone unturned and refining strategy to ensure the client’s goals are met’.

Highlights include ‘achieving a very advantageous settlement in a bitterly fought international divorce. Our client’s husband had embarked on an elaborate attempt to defraud her, and there were many dark moments over the four years of litigation. But, through innovative strategy and sheer determination, we achieved a formidable settlement which she very much deserved’.
