Zahava acts for individuals, families, and trustees, advising them on a wide range of private client matters. These include the preparation of estate planning documents (wills, trusts, powers of attorney and advance decisions) and the administration of estates and trusts. While most of Zahava’s clients are UK resident and domiciled, many have dual citizenship, assets abroad, or other cross-jurisdictional elements affecting their estate and succession planning.
She specialises in matters relating to mental capacity. As a Lifetime Lawyer, she is trained to work with elderly and vulnerable clients. She advises individuals and their families where diagnoses of dementia and other illnesses have an impact on the options available to them.
Zahava was awarded the STEP Diploma in Trusts and Estates (England and Wales) in 2022, also receiving the Certificate of Worldwide Excellence in the Taxation of Trusts (England and Wales) examination.
