Team Of LG Partners Planning To Start New Private Client Firm - Report

Four partners at LG, the international law firm formerly known as Lawrence Graham, are leaving to create a private client boutique business, according to Citywire.

Glenn Hurstfield, Tim Thornton Jones, Alex Ruffel and Nick Rucker are in the process of securing office space in Berkeley Street for the new practice, which will trade under the name Berkeley Law, the report said.

The quartet is serving out their notice and hope to launch the business next May, it said.

The new business will focus on ultra-high net worth families and individuals with a net worth in excess of £100 million. It will offer a range of services including asset protection and trust planning, the report added.
