We act for a broad range of clients including ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, trustees, beneficiaries, and professional advisers on a variety of complex disputes. We are adept at handling matters involving cross-border assets, offshore trusts and allegations of breach of fiduciary duty, often in circumstances where reputational and commercial considerations are as important as the legal outcome. Our team is also particularly skilled in navigating the legal and regulatory challenges associated with sanctioned assets, providing strategic counsel to clients facing asset freezes and compliance issues. We also have a highly successful track record in obtaining critical documentary and witness disclosure in jurisdictions around the world, which is critical in any private wealth dispute.
Our team has significant experience in landmark cases before the English courts and foreign jurisdictions, and we are practised in managing litigation across multiple jurisdictions and legal systems, working closely with leading offshore firms and local counsel in jurisdictions such as the Bahamas, Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, Curaçao, Cyprus, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Monaco, UAE, Isle of Man, Singapore, St Kitts & Nevis and Switzerland.
We also work closely with our tax disputes team to ensure that any tax issues are considered as part of the overall strategy in resolving a dispute. Our tax disputes team specialises in investigations and disputes across all areas of tax.
We are committed to delivering clear, commercial advice in what are often emotionally charged and reputationally sensitive disputes. Our ability to operate independently, and to work seamlessly with other advisers, makes us a trusted choice for clients facing complex private wealth litigation.
