Smith Hamilton was founded in 2014 as a boutique firm focused on corporate and commercial law, with expertise in fund management and advising senior executives, shareholders and entrepreneurs.
In 2023, the firm became part of MEUM Group, a multidisciplinary platform supporting ultra-high-net-worth individuals, their families and their businesses. During this period, our practice broadened significantly to include family, private client, education, charities and regulatory work, employment, and dispute resolution.
The law firm is now building on that growth to operate independently once again under the Smith Hamilton name. This transition reflects a natural progression in our growth and allows us to focus fully on delivering an integrated legal service under a single specialist brand, while retaining the expanded expertise developed over recent years.
For our clients, it remains very much business as usual – the same team, the same relationships, and an even broader depth of capability.
Family Offices & Privately Held Groups
Family offices and privately held groups rely on us for integrated legal support spanning private wealth, investment structuring, commercial operations and regulatory compliance.
We assist with governance frameworks, property and planning matters, cross border investments and complex disputes, coordinating seamlessly across practice areas to ensure cohesive, long-term solutions. Our advice is designed to protect assets, manage risk and advance multigenerational objectives.
