Stuart Hamilton joins SquareOneLaw to lead private client services

Jesmond-based Square One Law says its entrepreneurial approach and willingness to abandon the old legal model is helping it to attract top talent from its larger rivals.

Stuart Hamilton joined at Christmas having previously worked at Ward Hadaway and Crutes, where he headed up the private client departments.

Stuart’s specific area of interest is strategic succession planning for business owners, whether it be retirement planning, succession planning to pass business interests to the next generation or through Trusts to prevent fragmentation.
