“富不过三代” (Wealth does not pass three generations). We pay heed to this age-old Chinese saying, but we definitely do not believe that it is the general rule.
Our lawyers regularly advise high net-worth individuals and their families, family offices, and closely held businesses on a comprehensive list of issues, aimed at preserving the longevity of their wealth, or their businesses.
We recognize that in these matters, the stakes are always very high, not just because of the value of assets, but more importantly, the relationships between all involved. We therefore pay close attention to the details, and always strive to provide bespoke solutions to meet our clients’ varying needs.
Some areas of work include legacy planning and trust structuring, business succession, estate administration and matrimonial matters.
