Shareholders, whether the holder of  a minor or a major intersest in companies, need ongoing advice on the tax efficient use of their shareholdings; particularly when they want to realise the value of their business on selling up.

We advise on:

• the personal and commercial concerns faced by entrepreneurs
  
• the tax-efficient structuring of gifts of business assets into and distributions out of trusts
  
• the use of business assets in the context of Inheritance Tax planning
  
• the ongoing use of trusts in a commercial environment (including offshore trusts)
  
• estate planning and long-term devolution of business assets within families
  
• the disposal of business assets for maximum value - or to gift them for the long-term benefit of family members.
