Justin Ripman

M&R Global - Head of BD - North America

What can I do for you

Justin is a private tax and trust expert with a particular focus on advising landed estates. He was senior partner for eight years and is now responsible for building our relationships and business in North America.

Supporting your ambitions

Justin has acted for a large number of landed estates across the UK, providing overall strategic advice and complex tax planning, often aimed at achieving effective inter-generational change. He also acts as a trustee for families, bridging the gap between generations, and employing commercial knowledge gleaned from advising many landed estate clients and managing a Top 50 UK law firm.

What do others say

Speaking to leading legal directory Chambers & Partners, a client commented: “Justin is a bright, erudite lawyer who knows exactly what he is doing. He is at the top of my list and has a knack for coming up with clever, yet practical solutions to difficult problems.”

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the leadership you’ve shown and the culture you’ve fostered over the past eight years. Our culture as a firm has always been such a privilege to be a part of and witness and something I really cherish.”

What else should you know

Justin considers himself incredibly privileged to have served as senior partner of a firm which focusses so much on the support and development of its people and its deep and collaborative relationships with its clients.

What our clients say about us

  • I think Mills & Reeve are a wonderful firm. The support they have provided to us in a really difficult area has been brilliant, collaborative and commercially minded. The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.
  • They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.
  • All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.
  • I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.

As many clients will testify, too many lawyers deliver the required legal expertise but fail to deliver an outstanding client experience. Which is why we always listen to our clients and constantly ask ourselves what we can do to deliver the results you expect.

You expect a close and attentive working relationship, with a lawyer that is responsive and available when you need them. You also want clear, pragmatic and commercial advice tailored to your needs, and transparency and certainty on costs. We completely agree. That’s why every day, through our culture and approach we are committed to delivering the exceptional results and service our clients expect of us.
