Helen Griffiths
Spear’s Review
Helen Griffiths, a partner at BDO, leads the firm’s private client services US/UK tax team, advising HNWs, international families and entrepreneurs with US connections. With over two decades of experience in transatlantic tax, she is often called upon to guide clients through pre-residency planning, cross-border compliance and the structuring of global assets.
Griffiths has also built a reputation for advising wealthy families and family offices on succession planning, governance and wealth restructuring. Her role in divorce and separation cases – frequently involving intricate portfolios and multi-jurisdictional wealth – has marked her out for her ability to distil complexity into workable strategies.
Her influence extends beyond her client work, and Griffiths is frequently invited to speak at international forums and to share her expertise across BDO’s global network.
