Professional Biography

My practice covers a broad range of both domestic and offshore private client matters including tax and estate planning, wills, trust structuring, trust law advice and estate administration. I advise international clients (often in conjunction with offshore advisers) and trustees of offshore structures including private trust companies in relation to the ongoing administration of the structures, UK tax advice and in relation to specific projects and restructuring. I have a particular interest in multi-jurisdictional succession planning and conflict of law issues. Much of my domestic practice relates to the landed estate sector, advising trustees and beneficiaries of complex and dynastic UK trusts in relation to tax and succession planning and trustee compliance.
