Private Client & Tax

Boodle Hatfield has been providing bespoke legal services to individuals and families since 1722.
We act for a wide range of clients including landowners, entrepreneurs, international businessmen, executors and beneficiaries, trustees, private banks, charities and trust companies. Some of our clients have inherited their wealth; others have created it. Whatever the position, we help them to protect it.
We offer an holistic service to our clients - our advice covers all aspects of inheritance, capital gains and income tax, VAT, corporation tax and stamp duty. We are expert in the creation of all forms of UK and offshore trusts and their use in tax planning and wealth protection. We suggest appropriate structures to help our clients achieve their personal and financial objectives.
Our Contentious Trusts & Probate Team is highly rated in legal directories. They provide practical solutions when problems arising in the administration of trusts and estates become disputes requiring legal advice.
Most of our team are members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), the professional body for the trust and estate profession worldwide.
Several of our lawyers are also members of the Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT) and the Association of Contentious Trust and Probate Specialists.
