Nick Moxon

Senior Partner; Partner - Private Client

"I am an estate planning lawyer who works predominantly with the shareholders and directors of owner managed businesses but also with high-net-worth individuals in relation to all aspects of will, trust and estate planning requirements.”

I am the Senior Partner. I am also a partner in the Private Client department, having been a partner at Higgs LLP since 2000.

I have over 25 years experience of all aspects of wealth and succession planning matters. I advise both individuals and families on their succession requirements which are often achieved using a combination of wills, trust structures, family charters and family investment companies.

I am a director of the firm’s trust corporation, Higgs Trust Corporation Limited, and often lead on estate administration instructions having formed a long-term relationship with the family.

I advise on both trust creation and the administration of ongoing trusts acting as both a trustee and adviser to independent trustees.

I work closely with our business services department to ensure that all aspects of any succession plan dovetail with existing or new corporate structures.

I also act as Deputy and am a Panel Deputy appointed by The Court of Protection making decisions for people who lack capacity to make particular decisions for themselves.

I am a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners.
