Wealth structures that protect your legacy and allow you to grow with it.

Most advice offers one or the other: protection or growth. Ours gives you both, built by barristers, strategists, and a team that isn’t afraid of HMRC — but always stays legal.

Quick benefits:

  • Compliant tax efficiency: Reduce income, capital gains and inheritance tax exposure with legally sound strategies – no offshore gimmicks.
  • Integrated control: Align your business, property and investments under one framework so you remain firmly in control.
  • Tailored outcomes: Bespoke solutions built around your goals; results vary based on personal circumstances

Why Structure Matters

Your problem isn’t just tax, it’s a lack of structure. You’ve built to the 30th floor, but without foundations. Most advisors manage compliance or sell products; few architect the system. We are the structural back office that lets you grow higher without it all collapsing. By combining Cerulean Law’s legal rigour with Mural Crown’s strategic insight, we design onshore frameworks (Family Investment Companies, Self‑Administered Family Offices, trusts and holding companies) that align tax planning, governance and succession.

Problems we solve:

  • Fragmented advice from accountants, solicitors and wealth managers.
  • High tax bills eroding capital.
  • Unclear succession causing family tension.
  • Lack of liquidity to reinvest or exit ventures.

How we solve them:

  • One integrated strategy led by barristers, chartered tax advisors and governance experts.
  • Compliant structures that cut tax and protect assets without offshore risk
  • Governance frameworks ensuring family harmony and clarity in decision‑making

We are your foundation, your structural back office.

From Client to strategist

Founders Story

“I watched my father’s wealth drain away through scattered advice and reactive tax planning. By collaborating with elite legal and tax strategists, we built a structure that returned control and saved millions. Today I help founders and families across the UK do the same.”

– Alex Byrne, Head of Northern Ireland Operations for Mural Crown https://muralcrown.com/northern-ireland and Founder of Checkmate Wealth.
