Rosamond McDowell

Spear’s Review

Rosamond McDowell’s ‘mixed practice’ at Payne Hicks Beach is about half onshore and half offshore, dealing with wealth, tax, death and planning-related issues.

Her clients are global in their geography, stretching from the US to Hong Kong, and eclectic in their backgrounds, but she does gravitate towards clients she gets on with personally. ‘My theory on private client work is that you end up advising people who get on with you and like you. It’s symbiotic,’ she says. 

She advises on lasting powers of attorney, maladministration of probates and breaches of trust, conflicting international jurisdictions and the defence of executors and trustees who are subject to complaints from aggrieved beneficiaries.

‘It isn’t just tax. You have to balance the tax against all sorts of other issues,’ she says.
