We advise individuals, companies and trusts to plan their affairs in the most tax efficient way.  We can assist you in choosing an appropriate strategy and structure to make sure you, your family and your business pay the correct amount of tax.

In our tax planning team we have tax lawyers and other qualified tax professionals who can advise on a range of issues including:-

  • Estate planning to minimise future tax liability;
  • The use of family trusts to pass wealth to the next generation;
  • Tax implications of transferring shares in private limited companies;
  • Succession planning for family businesses;
  • Tax implications of gifts;
  • Tax treatment of trusts;
  • Inheritance Tax payable on death and how to reduce or eliminate it;
  • Tax liabilities of executors;
  • Personal tax returns;
  • Compliance and reporting obligations.

We work closely with our Company Commercial and with our Commercial Property Departments to ensure that the transactions of our business clients are structured in a tax efficient way so as to minimise any liability to Capital Gains Tax, Stamp Duty Land Tax or Inheritance Tax.
