Senior appointment boosts Lodders’ private client team

Midlands law firm Lodders has boosted its top ranking private client team with the appointment of one of the region’s most experienced capital tax and trusts specialists, Lindsay Porter.

With over 20 years professional experience dedicated to providing tax planning, wills, inheritance and trust planning advice to business owners and their families in the Midlands, Lindsay has held senior positions and headed the Private Client teams for a number of legal and business advisory firms, amongst them Edge & Ellison Solicitors and Deloitte.

Lodders’ dedicated private client team has consistently received the highest rankings in both the Chambers guide to the UK’s legal profession and the Legal 500 Directory.

Commenting on Lindsay’s appointment, the team’s head and Lodders’ senior partner Martin Green, said: “Lindsay has rightly earned herself a reputation as one of the Midlands’ most experienced specialists in her field, particularly in capital tax planning and trusts, and she is well known for her excellent advice.

“Lindsay represents an impressive resource for our clients and dedicated private client team. Her knowledge and expertise is a high level boost for our already well regarded tax planning advice, and her skills well-complement the team, which is amongst the strongest, largest and busiest in the region.

“In turn, Lodders and specifically the private client team provide Lindsay with a broad and well matched support for her clients, many of whom have remained loyal to her for many years.”

Lindsay Porter added: “Lodders is the right firm and perfect fit for my specialism and professional service values. The private client team is a strong resource, with seven partners, six solicitors and eight support staff, and, importantly, the firm is committed to providing exceptional professional and friendly advice, that is delivered with the best possible client service.”

Lodders’ private client team is well established both regionally and nationally, and provides advice in all aspects of wills, trusts, estates and tax planning and care and capacity matters. Martin Green sits on the main capital taxes sub-committee of the Law Society, six of its staff are members of the Society of Trust & Estate Practitioners, and partner Eamonn Daly is a Chartered Tax Adviser.
