Expert succession & tax legal advice and support. 

Specialist tax lawyers

In an uncertain economic and political climate, protecting your personal wealth has never been so important. With so many changes in tax law, it’s more important than ever to ensure your strategies are robust, compliant, and futureproof. Ever-changing legislation makes it even more difficult to get the right plans in place without the guidance of experienced tax lawyers.

Whether active in work or retired, landowner, farmer or entrepreneur, if you have high-value assets, the right advisors can help you plan for your own future and think about how you might eventually pass assets on. This might involve tax planning for you, your company or your partnership, the drafting and funding of trusts, preparing Wills and lasting powers of attorney, structuring foreign assets, charitable giving or handling complex tax affairs under evolving UK tax law.
