Family Offices
While we are not a formal broker, we have assisted clients on a select basis.
This has included Family Offices, e.g. brokering a mezzanine finance deal for a property group. Case StudyA law firm representing a member of a UAE ruling dynasty approached us to establish a Family Office. The purpose was to encourage deal flow and grow trade between the UK and the UAE.
