Whether you’re a family business or a high net worth individual, we can provide you with dedicated lawyers devoted to the legal and financial specifics in your jurisdiction. As a global law firm, we can guide you through everything from family law and tax to inheritance and succession matters, always discreetly and always through a commercial lens.
Our work covers the complete range of commercial property transactions, including setting up private trusts and taking on functions in the board of trustees. We can also advise you on the complex business of structuring your estate in light of anticipated succession, or when you are drafting wills or contracts of inheritance.
With many years’ experience advising wealthy private clients, we can carefully analyze your family situation and provide you with bespoke legal advice based on your personal context. And because we are a collaborative, inter-disciplinary firm, we can bridge the necessary relationships between the laws of succession, family law, company law and tax law, as well as handle cross-border cases.
Prenuptial or inheritance agreements, for example, call for dedicated knowledge of tax law and, in cases of shareholding, of the relevant company law. We’ll synthesize this knowledge and provide you with the best legal advice for your future.
Our private client lawyers in South Africa bring together the knowledge and experience you need to ensure that your assets are protected. We are able to assist in all aspects of fiduciary matters and offer services across a broad variety of areas such as trust and trust structures, wills, estate planning, administration of deceased estates for resident and non-residents, as well as providing advice in respect of the law of trusts and all aspects of deceased estates management.
