How We Work

Our Cross-Border Engagement Framework

International planning is not a product — it is a process.

01
Discovery & Situation Analysis

A comprehensive review of your tax residency, citizenship, domicile, asset locations, entity holdings, and family structure across every relevant jurisdiction. No strategy is built without a complete foundation.

  • Residency Analysis
  • Asset Mapping
  • Treaty Review
  • Compliance Audit
02
Structure Design

We select optimal jurisdictions and entity types — trusts, foundations, LLCs, corporations — and design the strategic blueprint tailored to your objectives, tax profile, and family circumstances.

  • Trust & Entity Design
  • Tax Modeling
  • Jurisdiction Selection
03
Implementation
We coordinate the full professional team — foreign counsel, international CPAs, private bankers, and trust companies — to execute the plan with precision and ensure every element is properly documented and funded.
  • Foreign Counsel
  • Documentation
  • Entity Formation
  • Account Setup
04
Ongoing Compliance & Maintenance

Cross-border structures require annual attention — FBAR filings, Form 3520 reporting, and periodic review as laws change. We provide ongoing counsel and coordinate with your accounting team year after year.

  • FBAR / FATCA
  • Form 3520
  • Annual Reviews
  • Law Change Monitoring
