As well as financial work, Hannah brings international and children expertise arising from her days as a partner at a London firm who specialised in advising international families. Hannah has built an extensive network of international lawyers and advisors for the benefit of her clients.  

Hannah Budd is one of the founding partners of BloomBudd LLP.
