Private Client 2021 - Lexology - Getting The Deal Through

In Lexology Getting the Deal Through's Private Client 2021 guide, Forsters' Private Wealth team have outlined the important estate planning issues that international clients need to consider if they wish to invest in or come to the UK.

As Contributing Editors, the Private Wealth team have worked with this internationally recognised resource by devising a questionnaire to draw out the key legal issues relevant to private individuals and trustees globally. We also provide and update annually a concise summary of these areas of law as they apply in England and Wales, including a review of likely trends and forthcoming changes relevant to private clients with an interest in this jurisdiction.

In addition, our team authors the Global overview introducing the guide. As an award winning international private client practice, we reflect on the challenges faced by globally-mobile individuals during 2020, as well as the opportunities we all hope will arise in 2021 and beyond.

The guide is tailored to aid private clients and their advisors to navigate and compare the legal complexities of each jurisdiction. It forms part of the Lexology Getting The Deal Through platform, an online resource tool that brings together legal information, written by industry experts on key subject areas, in every significant jurisdiction.

“The calibre of the partners and associates is very high compared to other firms. They have a broad depth of experience and technical skill which is not always found in other firms. Their staff retention rates seem high too, which helps the client experience.”
