As 2025 draws to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on a year shaped not just by our own milestones, but by the journeys of the clients we are privileged to support. Every individual, family, and business we work with faces moments of growth, challenge and transition and our purpose is to help them navigate each step with clarity, care and confidence.

Celebrating 50 years of trust, expertise, and financial excellence
This year marked an incredible 50 years of Sopher + Co. This occasion allowed us to reflect on our evolution over five decades while also reaffirming our commitment to the values that continue to drive our work today. 

Reflecting on the year, Daniel Sopher shared:
“As we celebrate 50 years, our focus remains firmly on the milestones that matter most, those of our clients. With upcoming industry changes and the recent budget announcement, our role as trusted advisers has never been more important. I’m incredibly proud of our team and the dedication they show to supporting clients through whatever the future holds.”

Welcoming Jason Coker and His Team
A major highlight of 2025 was the acquisition of LWBM Limited earlier this year. By combining Sopher + Co’s established infrastructure – including its Private Office, UK and US tax advisory, and digital accounting services – with LWBM Limited's specialist experience in global touring, royalty audits, and revenue tracking, the firm is uniquely positioned to support clients through key milestones. 

The acquisition comes at a pivotal moment for the music industry in particular, as streaming revenues, digital rights management, and AI-driven innovation reshape how artists and entertainment businesses manage their finances and intellectual property. 

Sopher + Co’s expanded team will help clients protect and grow their IP portfolios, manage multi-jurisdictional income streams, and maximise global earnings across touring, publishing, recording, and merchandising.

We’re delighted to welcome Jason Coker and his team into Sopher + Co. You can find out more about our Business Management services here. 

A New Website Designed Around Client Milestones
In November, we launched our new website to support our mission to guide clients through the key milestones in their personal and business journeys, from marriage, property and family planning to launching, growing, or exiting a business. 

Because every decision you make, every transition you face, and every goal you set deserves clear guidance and a trusted partner committed to your success. 

Looking Ahead: Budget Implications and Strategic Planning
With significant industry changes expected from key compliance changes to the outcome of the recent budget and broader economic shifts, the year ahead will demand careful financial planning. Our teams are working closely with clients to prepare for regulatory updates, explore opportunities, and build robust strategies that support sustainable growth.

We know that in times of change, clear and empathetic guidance matters more than ever, and we’re committed to providing exactly that into 2026 and beyond.
