Julia Cox

Partner

I am a personal tax and trust lawyer with a wealth of experience in private client matters, particularly in estate and succession planning.

Julia-Cox

About

My practice includes cross-border Will work, ensuring seamless estate planning for clients with assets in multiple countries. I have a strong background in trust and charity law, with experience handling matters involving the Charity Commission.

My clients range from UK and international individuals to their families and trustees. I am a trusted adviser for UK entrepreneurs, business owners, and high-net-worth individuals, as well as for non-UK domiciliaries. My experience extends to representing both corporate and individual trustees, whether they are based in the UK or elsewhere, along with other private client service providers.

One of the most fulfilling aspects of my work is developing client relationships that span multiple generations. I am dedicated to helping families safeguard their wealth for the long term. My recent projects have included advising a family on transitioning assets to the next generation while maintaining appropriate provisions and control for the present generation, and reorganising trusts to allocate specific assets to designated beneficiaries in a tax-efficient manner.

I am admitted to practise in England and Wales.
