Mills & Reeve LLP has been described as ‘the crème de la crème of the private client world’. At the helm are John Grundy, Catriona Attride (who joined the firm in June 2023 from Gateley Legal) and Lucy Howard. It has a strong reputation for its advice to business owners, wealthy individuals, families and landed estate clients. The group has particular expertise in advising on the creation of family investment companies. It frequently advises wealthy philanthropists on the establishment of charities and other charitable-giving mechanisms. Another core area of focus is advising wealthy families where mental capacity has become a concern. Principal associate Sarah Wood receives many plaudits. Matthew Hansell has now retired.
