Andrew Goldstone

Spear's Review

A published author on tax and estate planning and partner at Mishcon de Reya, Andrew Goldstone is well-placed to comment on the tax implications of the current political and economic climate. He worries about the future of legitimate tax planning: ‘Those who reduce their tax liabilities by sensible tax arrangements are at risk of trial by media, as well as an increasingly zealous HMRC. Clients now have to factor in potential reputational damage.’

Goldstone regularly advises on residence and domicile issues, including the statutory residence test, business investment relief and offshore trusts. His department’s flexibility enables it to assist with a broad range of client needs, including tax reliefs and tax-efficient investments.

He also advises entrepreneurs and key executives on wills, trusts, relevant tax reliefs and tax efficient investments, such as IHT Business Property Relief, CGT Business Assets Disposal Relief, Enterprise Investment Schemes and Venture Capital Trusts.
