Stephenson Harwood consultant Neil Noble and of counsel Ezio Dal Maso have been included in Spear's Magazine's 2022 list of the best aviation and yacht lawyers for high-net-worth individuals in 2022.

Spear’s, the wealth management magazine, compiles an annual index of aviation and yacht lawyers, which highlights the individuals who have cultivated impressive reputations in the field in addition to those who are making waves and transforming the industry.

In its indices, Spear's Magazine commented that Noble was "one of the world’s leading experts on superyacht construction and acquisitions", and that he "has worked on some of the most prestigious and ambitious superyacht projects." The publication described Dal Maso as "a go-to for HNWs and companies involved with aviation and superyacht finance, a niche role that has gathered him a wide range of clients, from lessors to owners to shipbuilders." It also noted that he "is a valuable asset to the private client industry since he is not only a fluent triglot, speaking Italian and French, but also qualified to practice in England and Wales and is admitted to the bar in both France and Italy."

Noble is an asset finance and commercial specialist who focuses on the marine sector. He has a wide range of international experience and expertise in asset, project, trade and general finance, as well as related commercial contracts.

Dal Maso specialises in non-contentious work relating to the financing, ownership structuring and registration of cruise ships, superyachts, commercial vessels as well as private jets.
