Private Wealth
Jonathan Riley
PartnerOur Service
Fladgate’s private wealth team specialises in advising on all aspects of wealth structuring and wealth transfer. We support high net worth individuals and families, both in the UK and internationally, in identifying and then implementing the arrangements that best suit their individual needs.
Our team helps our clients to manage and protect their privately held wealth. Typically this takes the form of planning during their lifetime and also planning to take effect after their death. We provide bespoke solutions across the full range of private wealth issues, including complex tax issues, succession, asset protection and private wealth management.
Our clients include some of the wealthiest families in the UK and across the globe including over 80 family offices as well as entrepreneurs, where an understanding of how business interacts with a client’s private wealth and objectives is required.
We are well placed to assist individuals who, through their wealth or family connections, have links to the UK or who are moving to or from the UK and need advice on immigration (including investor and entrepreneur visas), family, and matrimonial matters.
For contentious trust, probate and succession matters, we can also draw on the expertise of our highly rated dispute resolution team. Our work in this area is increasingly international, covering breach of trust, actions against professional trustees, fraud and asset tracing, constructive trust claims and the restructuring of trusts and other arrangements.
