New partner to expand private wealth offering at Shulmans

Leeds-based Shulmans has appointed private client and tax lawyer Julia Rangecroft to its private wealth division.

Shulmans is increasing its range of services to individuals, and businesses and property owners in particular, following Rangecroft’s appointment.

The law firm’s existing private wealth offering will be expanded to include an advisory service, which will support and protect individuals by providing lifetime legal and tax advice. This complements the services already provided by the private client team led by Julie Beales.

With more than 30 years of experience, Rangecroft is both a qualified chartered tax adviser and solicitor.

She is an active member of the Chartered Institute of Tax (Yorkshire committee) and the Country Land Business Association , and is Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners-qualified.

Tim Halstead, managing partner at Shulmans, said: “As a firm, we pride ourselves on the strong relationships we have with clients. Julia’s expertise offers a natural enhancement of our services, enabling us to advise people on both their personal and business affairs.”

Rangecroft commented: “Shulmans has a fantastic client base and I look forward to working with Julie to extend the support that our Private Wealth service offers to these clients. The collegiate culture within Shulmans and its commitment to career progression will enable us to attract the right people to join an existing strong team to further enhance our services.”
