Withers Worldwide

Primarily more US lawyers focusing on US tax and estate planning than any other London law firm, we are well placed to offer integrated US and UK tax and estate planning for American citizens living in the UK.

Working alongside our UK colleagues, the team offers the internationally mobile US citizens a complete service for all their US and UK tax planning needs.  Primarily a one-stop shop helps clients avoids the confusion and expense that is typically generated when separate firms are engaged to advise on US and UK issues.

As well as sophisticated tax planning, we provide integrated US/UK guidance on issues such as pre-nuptials and divorce, employment, the purchase of UK real estate and the establishment of charities qualified for tax benefits on both sides of the Atlantic.

We also have UK lawyers based in our US offices, who can provide ‘real-time’ advice for US clients considering a move to the UK. 

We act for clients based all over the world, but a large part of our work involves US citizens living in the UK. Many of them, though certainly not all, are involved in the financial services industry, and we are experienced in advising on personal structures for hedge fund managers, private equity principals and investment bankers.
