USA

The USA is a significant market for the UK and consequently for our firm and our team has over 35 years' experience advising US and UK clients on trans-Atlantic business. Our network of local advisers, local experience and English Law expertise smooths the way for US clients seeking to enter or do business with the UK market.

We offer our trans-Atlantic clients a full service, ranging from immigration matters to the setting up of a business in the UK. We have advised on a wide range of corporate and commercial transactions, real estate transactions and dispute resolution matters.

Our cross-departmental team brings together a number of lawyers who have lived and worked in the US, and so are familiar with the cultural and legal differences from both perspectives.  

Gareth Hughes is an experienced private client lawyer with more than 20 years’ experience in acting to protect and preserve my clients’ wealth and assets. Gareth acts for clients in preparing both UK and US wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney, draft declarations of trust, making applications to the Court of Protection and managing a full range of probate matters.
