On 1st and 2nd July, two leading members of 1 Hare Court, Sir Philip Moor and Katherine Cook, will take the stage at the Thought Leaders Conference in Lisbon, a key event bringing together top minds in the family law sector.
At its inaugural international event, the Thought Leaders Conference’s themes are dedicated to family, divorce and children law, specifically relating to high-net-worth (HNW) individuals, offering a forum for in-depth discussions on complex cross-border issues.
In a talk titled ‘A Judicial View on International Family Law Matters’, Sir Philip will draw upon his extensive experience as a High Court judge, providing valuable insights into how international family law disputes are being interpreted and resolved by the courts.
Sir Philip’s solo session is expected to touch on jurisdictional challenges, judicial cooperation between countries and the practical considerations faced by judges.
Katherine will join a panel discussion exploring privacy in international divorce proceedings, which will examine how different jurisdictions handle privacy in family proceedings, specific implications for HNW individuals with global lives, the role of the media and limits of reporting restrictions, and growing concerns around technology and digital security in separations.
With her in-depth understanding of both complicated financial remedy work and reputation-related issues, Katherine brings a powerful legal perspective to what promises to be a timely and dynamic conversation.
1 Hare Court is proud to be represented by a strong delegation at one of the most forward-thinking events on the international legal calendar whose dialogues will shape best practices and foster more robust collaboration in family law.
