Private Wealth

Overview

Our approach

For many families, the hardest legal question is not how to grow their wealth but how to pass it on without dividing the family. We advise individuals and families on structuring their assets and planning their succession, with careful attention to the Egyptian rules on inheritance and the realities of holdings spread across several countries. When a family business is involved, we help put in place governance that separates ownership from management, a family charter, and clear rules on who may join, sell or step back. We also handle the documentation behind these decisions, including holding structures, wills where they are permitted, gifts and powers of attorney. Throughout, we work discreetly and alongside the family's other advisers, such as accountants and private bankers.
