William Begley
Spear’s Review
Charles Russell Speechlys partner William Begley is a trusted adviser to both UK and non-UK domiciled clients, including business owners, entrepreneurs and those in the media and arts world.
Advising on a wide range of tax and estate planning issues, Begley finds solutions that help to protect the wealth of his clients and their families. This can involve, for example, generating a practical and effective succession plan to ensure assets are secured against the risk of divorce, family disputes and taxation.
Begley emphasises the value of a tax professional who can ‘cut through the jargon’.
‘You can write books about these things, and people have written books about these things, but clients aren’t interested in that,’ he tells Spear’s. ‘I get them to focus on the information they need to make decisions, and do it in a way where they understand the decision that they’re making.’
