      James is a partner in our US Private Client team helping clients with a US connection navigate the complexities associated with having tax exposure in more than one jurisdiction. James works closely with US individuals who reside outside of the US and therefore need to consider the interactions between the US and the other country as well as the extensive US tax reporting required when a US person has an interest in assets or structures outside of the US. He is a dual US and UK tax qualified practitioner who has over 20 years’ experience working with clients with a variety of issues including those faced by entrepreneurs and business owners such as Controlled Foreign Corporation (CFC) and Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) regimes. James trained with the market leading boutique US/UK tax practice in London where he became a Board member before it was acquired, then as a Partner at another Big 4 firm before joining KPMG. James spent his first 6 months with KPMG based in Zurich working with our Swiss firm and their US connected clients before joining the UK firm as a Partner in summer 2025.
