Three private client specialists come on board

RWK Goodman has announced a series of new appointments in London to enhance the firm’s private client offering.

Estelle Tague and David Anderson have joined the firm, and will be followed by François Mouniélou who will arrive in late November. This new team, which joins from Druces, will provide a deep specialism in domestic and international tax planning strengthening the firm’s cross-jurisdictional private client expertise.

Estelle (pictured, right), who joins as a partner, will lead the private client team in London. Estelle is a qualified accountant and a former specialist tax barrister.  

David (left), who joins the firm on a consultancy basis, was also a consultant solicitor in Druces’ private wealth division.  David was previously the managing partner at Sykes Anderson Perry prior to the firm merging with Druces. David specialises in private client and tax matters relating to France and Monaco.

François is a dual qualified French and English tax adviser. François, who will join as an associate, will grow our cross-jurisdictional tax offering by representing English, French and other European clients.

Tom Gilman, partner and head of private client, commented: 'We are delighted to welcome Estelle, David and François to the firm and wish them every success. The new team have a leading reputation for domestic and international tax matters and this will be a huge asset to our private clients in London and further field.'

Estelle Tague said: 'RWK Goodman has a first-class reputation for private client work due to its impressive client base which includes many high net worth multigenerational families with complex assets based in the UK and abroad. David, François and I are thrilled to join the team.'
