With the publication of the Chambers and Partners High Net Worth Guide 2026, 6KBW College Hill is delighted to be recognised as a leading set for Financial Crime: High Net Worth. We are also pleased that David Perry KC, Duncan Penny KC and Rebecca Chalkley KC have each been recognised as leading practitioners in this year’s Guide.
The Guide states that “6KBW College Hill is well regarded for financial crime matters involving high net worth individuals. Members at the set are regularly instructed to handle complex investigations involving bribery, corruption and sanctions.” It also notes that “6KBW does not seek glory but seeks to provide the most practical, sharp and insightful service” and that “6KBW College Hill are regarded as doing high-profile, high net worth cases. They have a great reputation.”
David Perry KC is recognised as “highly experienced in handling financial crime matters, both prosecuting and for affluent and high-profile defendants.” The Guide further describes him as “a font of all knowledge, particularly for proceeds of crime and civil recovery matters”, adding that he is “totally unflappable and has super judgement” and “intimidatingly brilliant.”
Duncan Penny KC is recognised for his work on financial crime matters for high net worth clients and is described as “well respected among instructing solicitors for this work.” The Guide adds that his “intellect and knowledge of the law is up there with the best, but what sets him apart is his strategic analysis and judgement”, while also describing his “instinct, knowledge and experience” as “exceptional.”
Rebecca Chalkley KC is recognised for regularly handling complex financial crime mandates for high net worth clients, with a particular focus on private prosecutions. She is described as “a pleasure to deal with”, “calm, unflappable and… a very reliable and consistent partner”, and “a fantastic advocate, brilliant with clients, and is a real team player as well.”
