The Firm

Fifty years of discretion, kept.

Founded in 1974, we are large enough to act on complex instructions and small enough that a partner reads every file.

The Experience

A practice built around the few.

We take on a limited number of clients each year, by introduction and by appointment. It is the only way to give a matter the attention — and the confidentiality — it deserves.

No call centres, no case numbers, no junior learning on your affairs. One partner, one relationship, held for as long as your family needs it.

The Firm

Fifty years of discretion, kept.

Since 1974, Robert Atkinson has advised families across generations. Our reputation is built on the matters you will never hear about — and that is exactly as our clients prefer it.

You are received by a partner, advised by a partner, and remembered by name. That is the whole of the private client experience here.

A matter of legacy

“Wealth is easily made and easily lost. What endures is how carefully it is passed on — and to whom.”

They handled three generations of our family with the same quiet certainty. We have never once had to explain ourselves twice.
