We advise families on complex governance issues, including structures for ownership and decision-making, and succession planning. We understand that families are increasingly international, with assets, interests and investments spread across the globe. We are not tied to a particular legal network, so we have the flexibility to recommend the most appropriate lawyer for each client in each jurisdiction. We work collaboratively with the family’s existing advisers.
We advise in relation to family assets and investments (often including a family business) helping our clients to plan ahead in order to protect and enhance family wealth for the next generation, and handle logistical challenges, like staffing and international moves. We also support families and family offices in making direct investments, whether acquiring large companies and real estate or alternative assets, such as art or aircraft. We apply the same level of critical commercial focus to our transactions for families as we would to any corporate deal.
We can support and advise families through everything from pre-nuptial agreements through to divorce and contact arrangements, and complex international probates. We also advise on tax and immigration. Our cyber security and reputation management experts support families who are looking to preserve their reputation in a world of social media and transparency.
