At Mishcon de Reya, we have a deep understanding of the dynamics and politics of families, family businesses and personal relationships. We understand the issues our clients face and what keeps them awake at night. We know that their concerns go far beyond money and wealth preservation: family issues, reputation, their home, the things they love, or their legacy are far more important. Our business is protecting them, their interests and the things that matter most to them.
This understanding has led us to create the Mishcon Private ecosystem to enable us to work with our clients holistically and identify and deal with the real issues they face. This ecosystem is made up of US, UK, Hong Kong and Singapore qualified lawyers in Hong Kong and Singapore specialising in high-end strategic cross-border tax and wealth structuring advice, protecting our clients' financial interests and giving effect to families' aspirations and values; in London we have experts in those areas just as important to our clients such as purchasing their family home, acquiring and protecting their art, their classic car or other luxury assets, relocating their family from one country to another, protecting their reputations or assisting them with education issues.
Our Hong Kong and Singapore private wealth team is experienced in establishing family offices and tax efficient holding structures, often with cross-border elements. We assist our clients in considering the benefits of a family office in one or both of these jurisdictions and navigating the tax, regulatory, employment and immigration issues.
Our team also includes highly specialised litigators who are experts in problem-solving and special situations and who are experienced in dealing with family and business disputes and complex multijurisdictional cases. If disputes cannot be avoided, we endeavour to resolve them with minimum fuss.
MDR Mayfair, our Private Advisory Services business, works with families to help them develop and implement the strategies that they need in order to safeguard the family members and best protect their assets for the future.
We never take for granted the privilege we are afforded by our clients to sit alongside them and be entrusted with their most complex and personal problems. The work we do is never just business, it is always personal and our Mishcon Private ecosystem enables us to provide our clients with the support they need whatever their issue may be.
