Private Client
Nobody likes to imagine a future without a loved one. It’s scary to think about and even harder to talk about, but our wills, trusts and probate lawyers can help ease some of the burden. We draft wills, set up trusts, advise in connection with the mitigation of tax liabilities and administer estates.
Our experience
As a top 60 UK law firm, we are one of the most respected legal firms in the country. We pride ourselves on delivering our legal advice at the highest standard and in a client friendly manner. Our team breaks down difficult to understand structures or complex situations to make them as easy as possible to understand.
Many members of our team hold the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners qualification and are part of The Association of Lifetime Lawyers. Private family charitable trusts is a growing area of advice and we also help an increasing number of clients to manage international assets.
