Farewill aims to use the money to help the company grow its business and realise its ambition to make it easier for people to plan for and deal with death.

The Osborne Clarke team that advised Highland Europe on the investment was led by Partner Robert Wood, Associate Josephine Healy and Senior Associate Robert Pook (all Corporate) and included Legal Director Clare Burman (Regulatory).
