Maguire Family Law—Jennifer Hudec

Firm appoints senior associate to lead Manchester city centre team

Maguire Family Law has appointed Jennifer Hudec as senior associate to lead its Manchester city centre team, strengthening its presence in the city following the opening of the office in 2024. The Manchester and Cheshire-based firm specialises in high-net-worth and complex family matters.

Hudec has worked in family law since 2017 and advises on high-net-worth financial cases involving trusts, foreign property, companies and pre- and post-nuptial agreements. Her practice also covers cohabitation disputes and children matters, including internal and external relocation, alongside experience in contested proceedings and alternative dispute resolution.

James Maguire, managing director, said Hudec is ‘an excellent addition to our team’, describing her as ‘diligent, detail-oriented and dedicated to providing the highest level of service’. He added that the firm is ‘confident that she will play a key role in the firm’s continued growth’.
