Sector focus:

As leading experts in trusts and other private wealth structures, we deliver tailored strategies through some of the most highly experienced professionals covering BVI, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Jersey, and Luxembourg law.

We focus on providing clear, practical advice and strategic guidance designed to help you protect, grow, and achieve your objectives with confidence. Our trust lawyers bring deep knowledge of trust and estate planning, succession planning, and family governance. This covers the trust and foundation lifecycle – from design and implementation of new structures through to the transformation and consolidation of older ones.

We work with ultra-high-net-worth individuals, their family offices, and trustees and beneficiaries, as well as key parties involved in private wealth structures including protectors, enforcers, and guardians. We partner with leading advisers, bankers, and wealth managers to help you grow and protect your wealth. Our estate planning solutions are tailored to your objectives, whether focused on governance, tax efficiency, philanthropy and charitable giving, reputation, or privacy.

We also help you avoid disputes wherever possible and, if necessary, resolve them effectively through private wealth litigation and dispute resolution. Our litigation team can stress-test structures to identify and mitigate potential risks, giving you confidence and peace of mind.

Our team includes experts who advise on the contentious and non-contentious aspects of trusts, foundations, corporate and real estate investment, finance, fund formation and advisory, pensions, employee benefit trusts, and regulatory matters including data protection, FATCA and the CRS. In appropriate cases, we can also provide trusteeship, administration, winding-up, and other governance services.

Our expertise in private wealth, succession planning and trusts work is recognised in our top rankings in the leading independent guides to law firms. These include top rankings in the eprivateclient guide to Top Offshore Law Firms, Legal 500 and the Chambers and Partners High Net Worth Guide.
