Investors and entrepreneurs
Our immigration team has earned its well-deserved reputation as a leader in the field through a combination of deep technical understanding, robust advice, and an ability to get results for clients. We have considerable expertise in complex personal immigration matters for high net worth individuals – particularly investors and entrepreneurs who require support tailored to their specific circumstances.
High net worth immigration guidance
At Penningtons Manches Cooper, our immigration team provides bespoke immigration solutions for high net worth individuals who wish to either set up a business or invest funds in the UK. We also work closely with leading experts in other practice areas within our firm to deliver integrated and compatible solutions for a much broader range of legal issues.
Our private client, family law and residential property teams can help individuals and their family members with pre-immigration tax planning, asset structuring, pre- and post-nuptial agreements and real estate purchases. We also collaborate with our corporate and employment teams to ensure that the visa requirements for setting up a business and recruiting staff are met.
Clients value the firm’s pragmatism. They are realistic and have an integrity which has won them their reputation.
Clients can also benefit from the introductions we can effect for them with our trusted network of wealth managers, banks and life management specialists, whose advice and guidance can ease any difficulties arising from relocating business and family interests to the UK.
We value our unique position in the field of immigration and use this responsibly by raising issues with government representatives and by presenting solutions that seek to ameliorate our clients’ position, while maintaining the government’s objectives for immigration control.
Our immigration team is recommended in the latest edition of Chambers UK and The Legal 500, the leading directories for the legal profession.
