Family Governance and Succession Planning

We are trusted advisers to Middle Eastern and international families, supporting them with complex cross‑border structuring, family governance and wealth preservation strategies. Our expertise spans tax‑efficient ownership structures, asset protection and multi‑jurisdictional estate planning. We can advise our clients on tax efficient cross-border structures and work in collaboration with our lawyers to navigate through the complex rules of inheritance and succession, ensuring efficient succession planning to intended beneficiaries, including trusts and foundation structures.

We support clients with trust planning, UAE foundations and work with our partners across multiple jurisdictions to advise clients on robust family governance frameworks and structures. We work closely with our clients to ensure our advice is tax efficient and in line with our clients’ long term commercial and strategic objectives. Our experienced team can also advise on appropriate ownership structures, to ensure the smooth management of multiple asset portfolios.

We also provide ongoing compliance support to families as part of our accounting and tax compliance services.
