Living between Dubai and Milan, but Litigating in London

In an article authored for Professional Wealth Management, Saqib Alam discusses the emerging trend of High-Net-Worth families, relocating from the UK as a place of residence, while retaining a connection and presence to the Capital for professional and legal support. As Saqib writes:

“For the world’s high net worth individuals (HNWIs), London will continue to thrive as the beating heart of global dispute resolution because its legal system, judiciary and professional services ecosystem are unmatched anywhere else in the world.”

“When HNWIs face legal challenges, whether they are personal or commercial, they instinctively turn to their trusted professionals and a familiar legal forum to safeguard their interests. This is why, for decades, the wealthy from Europe, Asia and the Middle East turned to London to enforce their legal rights and protect their wealth. From complex cross-border divorces to trust disputes, shareholder conflicts and commercial litigation involving offshore structures, London’s courts handle the issues with a level of expertise, scale and independence that is unmatched elsewhere.”
