Spear’s Review

Richard Wilson of Serle Court is a go-to silk for high-profile international UHNWs, representing clients from Australia to Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands and Hong Kong, as well as UK and Crown dependencies.

His expertise in international finance legislation has been built up over a career that also included a spell as a tax consultant at Price Waterhouse. He was called to the Bar in 1996 and took silk in 2016.

Getting the best result as quickly and cost-effectively as possible for clients is key. ‘I always aim to be pragmatic and commercial in my approach,’ he says. ‘In many cases emotions can run high amongst family members, and one of our main jobs is to provide the objectivity that helps to achieve the best result.’
