Leeds-based Legal Studio has appointed Steve Haggett as its latest new consultant.
Haggett (pictured) joins Clare Young and Malcolm Emery at Legal Studio to further strengthen the firm’s private client team.
He is a private client lawyer with more than 25 years of industry experience and is a full member of the Society of Trust & Estate Practitioners.
Prior to joining Legal Studio, Haggett led the trust and tax team for a top 100 law firm before setting up his own boutique firm with his wife.
Haggett’s work regularly covers a range of issues, including wills, lasting powers of attorney, both estate and trust administration, along with associated financial and tax planning.
He is regularly asked to act as both professional executor and trustee, as well as to represent clients with complex inheritance tax, capital gains tax, pre-owned asset, and other tax issues requiring management.
His specialisms include advising individuals to ensure that any bespoke tax and estate planning is both robust and flexible to achieve long-term family protection and wealth preservation.
Outside of work, Haggett enjoys keeping fit and active and spending time with his family.
