Legal Director Jane Johnson joins Birketts’ Private Client Advisory Team
March 3, 2021

Top 100 UK law firm Birketts has appointed Jane Johnson as a new Legal Director to its leading regional Private Client Advisory Team.

With more than 20 years’ legal experience, 15 of those spent as a chartered tax advisor, Jane has an extensive and detailed understanding of tax, trusts and estate planning for UK and non-UK resident and domiciled clients. At her previous law firm she provided advice to a wide range of clients including high net worth individuals, private banks and other financial institutions. Jane is particularly skilled with matters of complex precedent and bespoke trust documentation, as well as tax issues and the implications of moving to or leaving the UK and asset holding structures advising on trust law issues, UK tax and policy documentation

Jane said: “I’m excited to join Birketts’ Private Client Advisory Team and work with a team with such a diverse wealth of experience. Tax planning and trusts are matters that frequently arise in work for both individuals and businesses, so the large number of high net worth clients and blue-chip companies Birketts advises will undoubtedly produce some complex and unique problems I look forward to solving.”

Partner Louise Long said: “Jane is a tremendous lawyer and will be a great asset to our clients. Birketts handles a wide variety of matters for individuals and these are usually complex and multi-faceted, so Jane’s expert insight into tax planning will be a huge help not only for our private clients but also for our employment, immigration, property and litigation lawyers.

Our clients call our Private Client Advisory Team when they need our help with something of importance or significance. They expect to receive practical, reliable and experienced advice consistent in its quality, and it is clear from Jane’s exemplary record of client service that they will receive exactly that.”
