4 new tax & private client partners at Macfarlanes

Macfarlanes has announced that 4 of their tax lawyers will become partners in the firm on 1 May 2019. They are:

Elizabeth Doherty: a private client and trusts litigator who regularly teams up with our market leading private client team on complex and multi-jurisdictional private wealth disputes.

Richard Giangrande: a private client lawyer who works with international families, often with a US connection. Recently seconded to a leading New York firm.

Mark Hunter: a private client lawyer who works on complex engagements, often with a trust and corporate element. Recently seconded to a leading New York firm.

Gregory Price: a corporate tax lawyer who specialises in group tax (corporate structuring and reorganisations primarily for multinational groups) within our successful tax practice.

Charles Martin, Senior Partner, commented: “This is an outstanding group of lawyers. We welcome them to the partnership at a time of uncertainty but also at a time when many clients are telling us about the opportunities they see ahead.

“These appointments reflect our confidence in the future, borne of client feedback and the quality and adaptability of our people.

“Unfashionably enough, we have increased our trainee numbers in recent years and the fact that eight of these nine new partners trained at the firm is a vindication of that approach and investment.”
