Recognised as a global leader in private client advice, Macfarlanes draws on many decades of experience to advise our clients on how best to manage their affairs in a complex and ever-changing world.

Our firm is built and shaped around the needs of our clients with whom we form long-lasting relationships. We are the only City of London firm to combine both top-ranked private client and corporate practices. This makes us the natural choice for individuals looking for co-ordinated advice on both their business and personal affairs. We also have a market-leading disputes practice, with private client disputes combining the expertise of our pre-eminent private client and litigation teams.

Our work is wide-ranging and international and we use our independence to combine our own know-how on cross-border issues together with the best local advice in other jurisdictions.

Our clients are entrepreneurs, family offices, trustees, private banks, charities, investors and individuals. Whatever their goal, we guide our clients smoothly through the intricacies of the law both within the UK and overseas.
