About
Emma advises on a broad range of tax, trust and estate planning issues for individuals, trustees and family offices.
In addition to UK-based clients, much of Emma’s work has an international element including advising non-UK trustees (with or without UK resident beneficiaries) on tax and fiduciary matters and advising individuals coming to the UK on their pre-arrival planning.
Emma has experience in US/UK situations and spent six months with the trusts and estates group of a leading Los Angeles law firm.
