The HSM Group is pleased to announce that Robert Mack has rejoined HSM Chambers as a Partner to lead the firm’s Private Client practice.

Robert has more than twenty years of experience in trusts and private client matters. He specialises in private and commercial trusts of every description, including discretionary trusts, fixed/life interests trusts, charitable trusts, unit trusts, private purpose/STAR trusts and reserved powers trusts.
