Chris Belcher, head of private client at Mills & Reeve, said: “We are very excited to have Sarah joining us. She brings a wealth of experience that fits perfectly with our growing international client base. We have seen a real trend in international families investing in and taking advice in the UK given the UKs reputation as a centre of excellence.
