Private Wealth

Christopher is a highly experienced private client solicitor, specialising in advising ultra and high net worth individuals, family trusts, business owners, entrepreneurs, charities and corporate entities. His work includes tax and estate planning and wealth protection, Wills, the creation and administration of trusts, the administration of estates and acting as a neutral personal representative in complex and contentious estates.

He works closely with his corporate colleagues to provide a seamless service for business owners on pre-sale planning opportunities, tax, succession planning, the use of trusts and family investment companies and the structuring of family wealth.

Christopher was born and raised on Jersey, a well established international finance and private wealth centre (possibly explaining Christopher's career path!).

As a result, Christopher also has significant experience in advising on residence and domicile issues and in advising offshore trustees and international individuals in relation to their UK holdings.

Career

Christopher trained at Addleshaw Goddard in Manchester, where he spent 13 years from 2005 to 2018, when he left to take charge of DWF’s private client team in the North West, becoming partner in January 2020.

In September 2023, he joined Mills & Reeve as a partner in their Private Client department.
