What Do We Do?

At HOTCHKISS we specialise in two main areas (1) UK private client tax advice from an offshore perspective. Our focus is on such matters as residence, domicile and the use of offshore trusts and companies and other entities for trading, investment and wealth management. We also have a great deal of experience in UK property related transactions, both from an investment and trading perspective (2) International taxation and the taxation of offshore funds.

In addition we are also prepared to act as directors on companies where tax issues are relevant to maximise investor return and to act as an independent trustee (in conjunction with or separate from) existing trustees where tax may be an issue.
