A law practice advising high net worth and ultra high net worth individuals, family offices, and their business interests, with offices across India, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.
N N Lad & Associates advises high net worth and ultra high net worth individuals, their families, and the business interests they steward.
Every engagement is led personally by a senior practitioner. Our approach is tailored to the complexity and sensitivity that significant private wealth requires.
Our work spans wealth structuring, succession planning, private equity investments, capital markets activity, tax advisory, and dispute resolution, often across several of these disciplines for a single client or family group.
With offices in Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolhapur, New Delhi, London, and Dublin, we serve clients across India's key wealth centres and internationally, working in coordination with locally authorised practitioners where required.
Client affairs are handled with the highest standards of confidentiality, in keeping with the sensitivity such matters require.
Clients deal directly with experienced practitioners at every stage of their matter, with nothing delegated away from senior oversight.
HNI and UHNI matters rarely sit within a single discipline. We advise across the full spectrum of a client's legal and structuring needs.
Many of our client relationships span years, and in several cases, more than one generation of the same family.

Since April 2025, the UK has replaced its domicile-based inheritance tax regime with a residence-based test. Individuals who have been UK tax resident for 10 of the previous 20 years are now treated as long-term residents and brought within the scope of IHT on their worldwide assets, with a tail of up to 10 years continuing after they leave the UK. For families with connections across India, the UK, and Ireland, this represents a fundamental shift in how cross-border estates and trust structures should be planned.
As family enterprises in India transition to the next generation, the absence of structured governance frameworks is increasingly a source of disputes and wealth erosion. We advise clients on the planning structures that protect both relationships and assets across generations.
With offices across key business centres, we provide on-the-ground expertise wherever our clients need us. Each location combines local market knowledge with the full capability of our firm.
Our six offices across India and internationally allow us to serve clients personally and with proximity, whether for routine counsel or matters requiring immediate, senior attention. Work undertaken outside India is carried out in coordination with authorised legal professionals in the relevant jurisdiction.
