The Private Wealth team at independent UK law firm Burges Salmon has once again been recognised as a leading practice in the UK, retaining its Tier 1 ranking in the
2024 eprivateclient Top Law Firms guide. The guide provides a detailed analysis of the legal private client market in the UK, analysing client work, headcount and revenue growth from over 150 law firms across the country, with only 16 firms listed in the Tier 1 rankings.
Competing at the top of the legal market, Burges Salmon is the law firm of choice for complex and specialist advice for private wealth and is known for its work on some of the most complex and highest value succession, tax planning and trust restructuring transactions in the UK and overseas. Working with a wide variety of clients including entrepreneurs, landowners, high net worth and ultra high net worth individuals, private banks, trustees and family offices, the firm has one of the largest dedicated private client teams in the UK and helps its clients structure their affairs, preserve their property and pass it on to their successors, whilst also providing specialist advice on tax, divorce and nuptial agreements. The firm has a strong track record working with global financial institutions too, on the provision of trust and tax planning services.
This is the latest in a series of accolades for the team, with Burges Salmon recently recognised in leading directories Legal 500 and Chambers High Net Worth as a top private client law firm, with clients describing the team as ‘outstanding’, ‘responsive, engaged, and very much subject experts’.
