Meet Amanda

I joined Lawrence Stephens in April 2026 as a Partner in the Private Wealth and Succession Planning team. Prior to joining Lawrence Stephens I have been part of, and grown and led, private client teams and been a key ambassador in the wider private wealth sectors. 

I have experience in looking after individuals, families, and family businesses who need help with asset protection, succession and estate planning, trusts and family investment companies, family governance and capital taxes.  I have also helped charities, trustees and beneficiaries, and family offices. As well as non-contentious advice, I have experience in helping clients with contentious matters, particularly where the softer skills of negotiation and navigation of trigger issues is needed to avoid litigation, and supporting dispute resolution colleagues with fully litigious matters.

A lot of my work over the years has had an international dimension, and I advise both UK and international clients.
