The ‘outstanding’ private client practice at Judge & Priestley LLP offers ‘first-class service and specialists in the field’ and has gone ‘from strength to strength in recent years’ with the acquisition in November 2022 of Woolsey Morris & Kennedy, resulting in a new office in Sidcup and three new private client partners; Tim Goodwin, Isabel Elliott and Chris Elliott. Co-heading the team is the ‘passionate’ David Chandra, who has significant experience in acting for high-net-worth individuals, charitable bodies and financial institutions on high-value estates and succession planning issues, and the ‘technically superb’ fully qualified STEP member Brian Tan, who specialises in probate and inheritance tax matters.
