Light has a wealth of experience in advising high-net-worth individuals on all aspects of personal taxation, including income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax, as well as related off-shore elements.

He also has considerable experience in advising shareholders on their tax planning, with a particular emphasis on the ultimate sale of their business. He has advised on a large number of trade sales and private equity transactions.

After a period of initial training at HMRC, he worked at Deloitte for 24 years at a number of locations in London and on the South Coast, where he qualified as a chartered tax adviser.

Michael Giddins, managing partner at Lester Aldridge, commented: “I am very pleased to welcome Richard to Lester Aldridge. He brings a wealth of experience in all manner of tax planning and will add further strength to our private client team.”
