Justina De Brett

senior Associate | financial remedies

Justina is a financial remedies specialist with a sharp eye for detail, and a talent for cases where complex disclosure is being used as a weapon.

She acts for and against high-net-worth individuals across divorce and financial remedy proceedings, often with an international dimension, and with much of her work running through the High Court. She is organised, thorough, and deeply committed to her clients.

She's earned a reputation as the “disclosure sleuth.” Never phased by sprawling documentation, opaque structures, or attempts to obscure the real financial position, Justina finds the thread, and stays ahead of it.
