We are chosen to act for individuals, families, estates, trusts, and family businesses based in the UK and overseas or those that have overseas interests.
While our team regularly offers advice on Elderly Care, Powers of Attorney, Wills, Probate administration, Trusts and tax matters, we also call on expertise from other teams within the firm to provide a wide-ranging service to clients on all aspects of their affairs.
