Profile

Dominic Lawrance is a partner in the private client practice at Charles Russell Speechlys in London, where he has specialised since 2002. He advises internationally mobile individuals — particularly UK-resident, non-UK domiciled clients and US nationals living in the UK — on tax planning, succession structures, trust law, and offshore wealth structuring. He is co-author of Clarke's Offshore Tax Planning, an annually updated guide to UK offshore tax law widely used by tax advisers and wealth managers.

Lawrance is consistently ranked as a leading individual in the Legal 500 (2021–2026) and in the Chambers High Net Worth guide. Peers describe him as "a walking textbook" and "the leading technical adviser in London" on non-domicile matters. He is also an experienced adviser on charities and tax-efficient philanthropy.
