Robert Mack Joins HSM Partnership as Head of Private Client & Trusts
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. Robert also has deep expertise concerning the establishment and administration of Cayman Islands foundation companies, wills and estates, and regulatory matters touching on wealth management and the administration of trusts and estates.
Robert advises high-net-worth families, professional service providers, banks, institutional and lay trustees, executors, protectors, enforcers, and foreign attorneys, in both non-contentious and contentious trust and estate matters.
Robert has been consistently ranked by leading directories including Chambers and Partners and Who’s Who Legal in offshore trusts. He is also widely published and his articles have appeared in Trusts & Trustees, the STEP Journal, LexisNexis and the Trust Quarterly Review on a diverse range of topics including the effects of technology on succession planning, Cayman Islands foundation companies and the transmission of digital assets on death.
He has been practicing Cayman Islands law exclusively since 2007. Prior to that he was an English qualified solicitor practicing in London. Robert was a leading Council Member of Cayman’s branch of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (“STEP”) for over twelve years where he held several roles including being a member of the legislative sub-committee which develops and refines the laws of the Cayman Islands in partnership with the Cayman Islands government. He remains an active STEP member in a non-executive capacity.
HSM Managing Partner, Huw Moses, OBE shares: “We are thrilled to welcome back Robert Mack. He is an exceptional private client practitioner that goes above and beyond for clients. We look forward to Robert leading this practice.”
