Private asset management

UGGC & Associés was one of the first French law firms to create a department dedicated to Private Clients. The lawyers in this department provide clients with tailored consultant services for all their personal legal matters, and in particular, in the management of their professional or private assets.

UGGC & Associés advises its clients on all major legal or tax decisions with regard to the management of their personal estate: professional asset organisation, international tax schemes, tax-free investments, changing tax residence…

When it comes to matters of international taxation and tax residence, the firm relies on a network of specialist correspondents providing clients with a broad international tax review. In particular, the firm has experience in handling taxation issues in Belgium, Luxembourg, Morocco and Asia, thanks to its offices in Brussels, Casablanca, Beijing and Shanghai.

UGGC & Associés has recognised expertise in family ownership transfer strategies, in particular as a consultant to shareholders and managers, setting up the legal framework that will ensure an organised transfer of power at the appropriate time.

Lawyers of our Private Clients department have taken part in official commissions to promote the introduction of trusts into French law and therefore hold relevant expertise in the use of this new personal estate management tool.
