Charles Lloyd

Spear’s Review

Urbane, with a calm, confident manner, Harbottle & Lewis’ Charles Lloyd is a much-liked figure in the profession. 

While perennially busy with international trusts and estate litigation for HNWs, the adviser finds his tax work galvanising. ‘It’s a privilege to have interesting work. I look at my partners doing banking transactions and think, “I’m really lucky.”’ 

The veteran adviser, who previously led Macfarlanes’ private client disputes group for over two decades, supports a wide array of clients including beneficiaries, protectors and trustees. He also has expertise in succession issues and family businesses held in complex structures.
