Rahul is a specialist family Associate with a growing practice in contested financial proceedings.
He works closely with high-net-worth clients to resolve complex financial and private children matters following the breakdown of their relationships. Rahul advises on asset structures both in the UK and abroad.
Rahul is an active member of Resolution and is committed to achieving results in a cost-effective and client-focused manner.
I must say that both Counsel and Rahul’s approach on the day was exceptional. They dealt with Andrea’s case in the most professional and courteous way and Rahul is to be commended for his excellent people skills!
Ms P
His quality of work, enterprise and assumption of responsibility are all redolent of a 1-2 year qualified solicitor rather than a trainee.
