Alexander Shepherd - Manager

Alexander joined Buzzacott in 2019 and is a Manager in our Expatriate Tax Services team.

He helps high-net-worth American citizens in the UK and British citizens in the US with preparing both their US and UK tax filings as well as providing planning advice. In particular, this includes assisting with US Federal and State Income Tax returns, foreign account and asset reporting, trust and wealth and estate planning and reporting, UK Income Tax returns, and wealth and estate planning.

Navigating both the US and UK tax systems can be difficult. Alexander helps clients tackle these challenges by providing bespoke advice on how to organise their tax affairs and helping them with their tax compliance obligations. He specialises in tax residence and domicile, and US expatriation. 

Working with our Private Client team, Alexander is able to advise on the US tax consequences of US citizen beneficiaries of UK trusts. He also works collaboratively with our Corporate Tax team to deal with the impact of US citizens with controlled foreign corporations.

Alexander is a dual qualified UK and US tax adviser. He is a Chartered UK Tax Advisor (CIOT) and a US Enrolled Agent (EA).

Outside of work, Alexander enjoys playing five-a-side football, fitness and socialising with friends.
