Andrew Mason

I qualified as a solicitor in 2019 into a leading London private client practice before joining Fladgate as an associate in the Private Client and Tax team in 2022.

I advise on a wide range of private client matters for HNW and UHNW resident non-domiciliaries, UK and international trustees and domestic clients.

My practice encompasses UK and offshore tax, succession planning, trust and estate administration, often with a cross-border element, wills and lasting powers of attorney.

I am an associate member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners.

• Advising on the unwinding and restructuring of an offshore trust structure for a former UK domiciliary and their non-domiciled spouse in preparation for their return to the UK, including winding up existing offshore trusts and the tax-efficient transfer of assets to newly incorporated offshore companies.
• Advising on complex SDLT issues and structuring of the purchase of multiple residential units within a new development.
• Advising a HNW UK resident and domiciled individual on their wealth and estate planning, including preparation of complex discretionary wills, creation of lifetime trusts and ongoing advice and administration of existing settlements and a charitable trust.
• Advising a resident non-domiciled family on significant historic tax liabilities and rectifying their position with HMRC under the Worldwide Disclosure Facility.
