In Chambers and Partners’ latest High Net Worth Guide Rankings, both Kobre & Kim and Robin Rathmell have been recognized in Band 2 of the “Financial Crime: High Net Worth Individuals in UK Rankings.”
Chambers hailed the firm’s “comprehensive range of services for high net worth clients facing international criminal and regulatory investigations.” Sources praised the firm as “a one-stop multi-jurisdictional shop” with a “team of amazing lawyers with diverse backgrounds to interpret the law of different countries.” Other commentators remarked that the firm is “extremely good with clients,” with “a group of problem solvers that aim for good outcomes to solve the client’s needs,” and “are very experienced in getting you a deal, but they will fight if you need them to fight.”
Mr. Rathmell was commended by Chambers as “highly sought after for his in-depth experience advising on domestic and international financial crime matters.” One source described Mr. Rathmell as “excellent and really good to work with – he is very practical and great at solving clients’ problems.” Another praised him as “a fantastic lawyer” and explained that "the expertise that he brings is that he was originally a trust and estates lawyer, so he brings an ability to help clients in that situation protect their assets from seizure by the government while at the same time defending the criminal case itself."
