CorporateJurit appoints Christian Abletshauser to lead Family Law practice
Jurit LLP has appointed experienced family lawyer Christian Abletshauser as Partner to lead its London-based Family Law practice, strengthening its growing Private Wealth & Tax offering.
Christian has more than 20 years’ experience advising individuals, families and business owners on complex family law matters, including divorce, financial remedies, children, nuptial agreements and cohabitation, often with international dimensions.
His experience includes sole conduct of significant reported cases, including Robertson v Robertson [2016] EWHC 613 (Fam) and Re T, one of the four conjoined appeals determined by the Court of Appeal in Re H-N and Others [2021] EWCA Civ 448.
Christian combines clear judgement and strategic thinking with a genuine personal commitment to his clients, many of whom continue to turn to him long after their case has concluded.
Christian said: “Jurit’s collaborative culture, senior expertise and entrepreneurial model were a strong fit for me. Complex family matters increasingly overlap with tax, trusts, succession and business interests, and Jurit’s model allows us to work seamlessly across those issues.
“I look forward to contributing to Jurit’s growth alongside excellent, supportive and genuinely like-minded lawyers, in a firm where clients come first and commercial success follows from putting their interests at the heart of what we do.”
Robert Marcus, Founding Partner at Jurit, said: “Christian brings deep experience, sound judgement and a pragmatic, client-focused approach. Family law is a natural extension of our private wealth practice, and we are delighted to have him leading it.”
Jo Summers, Head of Private Wealth & Tax at Jurit, added: “Christian’s appointment significantly strengthens our private client offering, bringing senior family law expertise alongside our existing private wealth and tax capability.”
The appointment is the latest investment in Jurit’s Private Wealth & Tax practice, which has recently been recognised in the Chambers High Net Worth Guide.
