Jane took silk in 2019 and is ranked in Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500, from 2022 editions: “She is a demon of the courtroom and it is a genuine pleasure to watch her cross-examine others in court, as she is in total control of the situation.” “She just terrifies the other side, who you see trembling as she is so good, and she is forensic – you find yourself applauding her in court.” Jane practices in commercial, partnership/LLPs and employment law with particular experience in litigation involving team moves, restrictive covenants, misuse of confidential information, breach of fiduciary duty, civil fraud and contractual disputes. Jane’s practice frequently involves multi-jurisdictional disputes and complex, high value litigation in financial services and regulated markets.
Recent cases include: A v B; Hewlett Packard v Manchester Technology Data AJ [2019] EWHC 2089 (Ch)) (practice guidance on approach to inspection and interrogation of digital data under search and seize order); Gallagher v Bishopsgate Insurance Brokers [2019] (alleged team move and breach of fiduciary duty); ICAP Management Services Limited v (1) Berry (2) BGC [2017] EWHC 1321 (QB) (no TUPE transfer upon share acquisition); Marathon Asset Management v Seddon [2017] I.R.L.R. 503 (Wrotham Park damages for theft of confidential information); and Hosking v Marathon Asset Management LLP [2017] Ch 157 (landmark case on the meaning of ‘remuneration’ in the context of forfeiture of profit share upon breach of fiduciary duty).
