Clients remark that the team at Michelmores LLP is ‘the right size – not too big to lose focus and sit in silo, but large enough to have in-depth expertise’. Led by Dhana Sabanathan, the practice advises on all aspects of wealth structuring for HNW and UHNWIs and their families, based in the UK and elsewhere. James Frampton, who divides his time between London and Exeter, is another key practitioner to note.
