We can provide legal advice upon will trusts, lifetime settlements, co-ownership of real estate, pension trusts, charitable trusts, express resulting and constructive trusts, and provide a commercial pragmatic flexible approach to cases. We are here to help.

We are well located for travel to and from the offshore Balliwicks of Guernsey and Jersey, as well as the Isle of Man jurisdiction, and the UK overseas territories being only a few minutes taxi journey from Southampton Airport.There are currently direct flights from Southampton Airport to Jersey, and Guernsey. Also direct domestic flights to Leeds, Manchester, and Newcastle. Also international flights to several European cities and beyond.

We are able to work co-counsel with foreign law firms by direct access, and accept public access from international clients abroad using the fee payment escrow system of Barco (see further details about Barco on this web site).
