Practice
Three Practice Areas. One Engagement.
Each is carried out by the professionals in our network who specialize in exactly this, coordinated throughout by LTB as a single point of contact.
Matters
Representative Matters
- A gambling or iGaming license application declined by a regulator
- AML/KYC policy deficiencies flagged during a licensing or banking review
- A corporate bank account closed without meaningful explanation
- A merchant account application declined, or a MATCH/TMF listing
- Funds frozen or withheld pending source-of-funds documentation
- A company formed in a jurisdiction that no longer supports its banking or licensing needs
- Tax residency never properly established after relocating, resulting in double taxation
- A visa or residency application declined because the underlying income is gambling, crypto, or adult-industry revenue
Industries
Industries We Represent
Each has its own regulatory, banking, and tax mechanics. LTB's network is built around understanding those specifics, not merely tolerating them.
Reach
Where We Work
Three jurisdictions anchor most engagements, each handled with a different, deliberate mix of direct work and local partnership:
United States
LLC formation for non-resident owners, with annual federal filings (Form 1120 and Form 5472) kept current through our US filing partners.
United Kingdom
Private limited company formation and VAT registration handled directly; confirmation statements and year-end accounts kept current by our UK-based providers.
United Arab Emirates
Free zone incorporation and, where relevant, relocation, with corporate tax returns and simplified financial statements prepared in-house.
Beyond these three, LTB incorporates, relocates, and places banking across a further network including Malta, Switzerland, Indonesia (Bali), Panama, Paraguay, Georgia, Spain, Portugal, and Albania, plus Hong Kong, offered for incorporation and banking without an accompanying relocation service.

Engagement
How an Engagement Is Structured
LTB is a boutique legal, tax, and banking practice, not a bank, payment institution, or electronic money institution, and it holds no client funds. What the practice maintains instead is a network of accountants, licensed tax and immigration professionals, and banking relationship contacts, built over years in the jurisdictions our clients require. LTB manages each engagement from review to resolution; the regulated work itself (opening the account, filing the return, filing the visa) is carried out directly by LTB where noted above, and otherwise by the licensed professional in the relevant jurisdiction. Clients deal with a single point of contact throughout.
- 1
A review, or a confidential conversation.
Some engagements start with a specific situation: a licensing refusal, a closed account, an unresolved tax position. Others start with a review of what already exists: the companies a client currently holds, where, and why.
- 2
A structure, not just an answer.
From that starting point, LTB proposes a coordinated portfolio (often more than one company, deliberately placed across the jurisdictions that fit the client's activity, tax position, and risk profile) rather than a single fix in isolation.
- 3
Placement and representation.
The relevant professionals in our network (legal, tax, or banking) are engaged and coordinated throughout by LTB, alongside the work LTB carries out directly.
- 4
Resolution, and an ongoing relationship.
Most clients remain with LTB for what follows: a second jurisdiction, a later relocation, the next tax year's filings, a bank relationship that needs revisiting.
Approach
Why Clients Retain LTB
We name the mechanism.
If a listing, a compliance deficiency, or a jurisdiction mismatch is the cause, we say so plainly and explain the path to resolution.
The relationships are real, not marketing.
Every placement runs through a professional we already work with in that jurisdiction.
Compliant by design.
Every engagement is structured to be legal and to withstand scrutiny. The practice resolves access problems, not compliance problems.
Discretion is structural.
No published client names, no identifying case studies. Initial conversations can take place by email as readily as by form.
