Spear’s Review

Camilla Wallace, senior partner at Wedlake Bell, values clarity of communication above all when dealing with clients.

‘I translate complex areas of the law into plain English and assist my clients with navigating their way through life-changing events – certainly in tax terms – from death, divorce, relocation and succession to the sale of family businesses,’ she says.

Wallace advises HNWs on estate planning as a tool to mitigate inheritance tax and pass on estates using lifetime gifts, trusts and tax-efficient wills. She also works on capital gains tax and income tax mitigation strategies in regard to lifetime tax planning.

Winner of the Tax & Trusts Lawyer of the Year Award at the 2024 Spear’s Awards, Wallace has extensive experience of both offshore and onshore trust structuring, and advising trustees and beneficiaries in relation to the day-to-day management and administration of trusts and estates.
