UK Wealth Boutique Joins Forces With Private Client, Corporate Law Firms

In the latest round of consolidation within the wealth management arena, a Leeds-based wealth manager has teamed up with players in the legal space.
The Lawrence Scoffield Group has merged with private client and corporate advisory law firms to form professional platform Progeny.
Progeny will serve as an integrated platform and network of wealth planners, private client and corporate solicitors. It comprises the Lawrence Scoffield Group – now known as Progeny Wealth – and Mark Burns Legal Services – now called Progeny Corporate Law and Progeny Private Law.
“Progeny provides a unique combination of wealth management and legal advice for private clients, corporates and family offices. Progeny was born out of an ambition to create the first multi-service professional platform designed to match client goals with those of the professionals advising them,” said Neil Moles, managing director of Progeny.
According to its website, Progeny Wealth's offering spans personal and family protection, retirement planning, wealth succession and philanthropy.
