Our Team.
Founded on the belief that exceptional advice is built on genuine relationships, deep understanding and absolute discretion.
The partners of Hestia Private Client met whilst working together at a highly regarded regional boutique private client firm. What began as professional relationships quickly became genuine friendship, built on shared values, a commitment to excellence, and a belief that private client work is at its best when relationships come first.
Following five years with a large national law firm, where we played a central role in growing their regional private client team and gained a reputation for top‑tier advice, we wanted to create a practice where clients and colleagues are prioritised in every decision.
