Private Wealth
Our cross-departmental Private Wealth group has been recognised as a market leader for many years. We are exceptional for a large international law firm in having a substantial private wealth capability, serving a large number of major families and their family offices.
We offer a fully integrated service for the ultra-wealthy who need expert and joined-up advice on their personal wealth structures, international tax planning, commercial and real estate investments, reputation management and immigration issues.
Acting for many of the world’s wealthiest families, we provide independent and sound advice based on insight, knowledge and technical expertise. We are one of the few international firms able to assist clients with an integrated service covering both private client and corporate needs.
We are experienced in advising international families, private banks and fiduciary groups. We have particular expertise in advising entrepreneurs and members of the finance industry. Working closely with our top-ranked corporate lawyers (who have a recognised specialism in venture capital and private equity), our private client lawyers provide innovative answers to the problems of wealthy clients throughout the world.

- Personal wealth structures
- Investment structures and portfolios
- Tax efficient structuring on UK investments
- Family governance
- Corporate and real estate investments
- Reputation management
- Trusts disputes
