Gilles Erulin founded the practice in 2013 as Westwick Melrose & Cromwell. At the outset it was one practitioner working directly with families on their transitions and their offices.
That is no longer what the firm is. Five partners now hold mandates, with a sixth joining this year, and the work is carried between them rather than by one adviser with support. The former name described how the practice began. The new one describes what it has become.
For families and advisers who already work with us, nothing moves. The website address is the same, email addresses are the same, and the partner you deal with is the partner you dealt with last month.
If you hold our details in a supplier record, a directory entry or a mailing list, Westwick Partners is the name to use. Westwick on its own is correct in running text.
Everything else, from how we work to what we take on, is as it was.
