Sue Laing
Spear’s Review
Sue Laing provides expert guidance on succession planning, long-term asset protection and tax planning, with a focus on providing partnerships and family businesses with legal and practical advice.
As a consultant in Boodle Hatfield’s private client team (after stepping down as partner in 2024), she has provided strategic trust and tax planning advice for a large, high-profile, family property business. This included conducting a major review of the business’s structuring (including family trusts), as well as taking steps designed to ensure the trustees are protected against potential personal liability in future.
Laing is a member of the Estates Business Group (which represents the top 30 landed estates in the UK) and a founder member of Professional Advisers to the International Art Market.
