The firm’s private clients team is experienced in several areas of the law, assisting our Clients in connection to several matters, with particular emphasis on:

· asset management, planning and structuring of investments;

· transfer of family businesses across generations, including trusts and asset structuring;

· structuring family governance rules, including execution of family protocols and related documentation;

· advice on tax structuring;

· legal and family matters, including pre-nuptial agreements and property regimes, divorce and regulation of parental responsibilities, succession planning and disputes between family members with regard to family businesses;

· nationality (interfacing with our Immigration Sector);

These matters often become more complex when they are of an international nature, which involves determining which are the jurisdictions and respective internationally competent courts and applicable laws, European and non-European.
