W&F Q4 2024

13 | Wealth & Finance Q4 2024 back to their 2009 acquisition of HBOS. This is far from the only example of Jenny’s mastery, and another notable case saw her act on behalf of claimant investment companies during the dispute they entered into against the international investment bank UBS. In short, the claim stemmed from UBS’ alleged misstatements and negligent advice pertaining to the leveraged acquisition of a security on the Hong Kong stock exchange, as well as the subsequent apparent failure to adequately discharge duties owed when the power of sale was executed over said security. Across both of these cases, as well as the many others she has found success in, Jenny’s famed litigation-arbitration practice comes into play, a proven combination which serves as the foundation for the positive outcomes her clients continue to receive. Following on from this, client feedback about Jenny focuses on her knowledge and professionalism, with one previous client describing her as “highly resourceful and focused”, “extremely thoughtful in her approach to litigation”, and as having “impressive attention to detail.” With these characteristics to boot, it is no surprise that, outside of Harcus Parker, Jenny serves as an advisory member for the Law Society’s Dispute Resolution Committee and can often be found speaking at events or contributing to discussions about industry policies. Beyond this, She also proudly sits on the Therium Access Advisory Committee, which oversees the creation of case and project grants facilitating access to justice, as well as holding a coveted spot in the London Solicitors Litigation Association (LSLA).
