We work across multiple sectors and jurisdictions
A large number of the families who seek our advice have business and property interests in a wide variety of sectors and jurisdictions. Many of these families are not resident in the UK; they come to us not just to assist them in protecting their private wealth but also to help them achieve their long-term business goals. And where necessary, we collaborate closely with lawyers who have expert knowledge of particular jurisdictions, ensuring everything we do for you is perfectly tailored to your situation.
Understanding your strategic needs
If you are looking for legal advice on the preservation of your wealth, particularly in relation to marriage or divorce, the growth of your assets for the benefit of your family, or want an experienced corporate legal team able to advise on transformational corporate structures, including acquisitions, or reorganisations for mergers, our bespoke team is on hand to assist you. You may require high-level legal advice in the field of commercial real estate purchase, sale, and property management. You may have spent a lifetime building your business assets and family wealth, and wish to maximise your legacy for future generations. Whatever your needs, regardless of their complexity, we will assist you in navigating your circumstances, delivering for you creative and effective solutions.
