Rachel’s reported cases include:

• Sloutsker v Sloutsker [2025] EWFC 369 – Acted for the applicant wife on an application for financial provision from her former husband who was a prominent former Russian senator. The case involved non-disclosure by the husband and serious litigation misconduct meaning that the findings regarding the husband’s wealth were based on disclosure from third parties. The husband was found to be an untruthful witness who had fabricated evidence and made significant efforts to hide his true wealth. A lump sum of £25m was ordered to be paid to the wife.
• Sloutsker v Sloutsker [2025] EWFC 368 – This judgement dealt with the removal of anonymity from the husband and use of the confidential information provided by third parties to enable the wife to enforce her order.
