Our tax group is constantly devising fresh technical and workable solutions to our clients’ problems by having a sound understanding of the commercial background to the matter in hand. We aim to work in partnership with our clients as their ongoing trusted advisers.
Our non-contentious tax advice covers international transactional and advisory work, including:
- M&A, joint ventures and corporate reorganisations
- banking, structured finance and corporate recovery
- investment funds
- real estate investment and development
- VAT and duties
We have also developed a niche for insurance tax advice. This is a complex, highly specialised area in which we have a great deal of experience.
We are well-positioned to advise on cross-border tax structuring of transactions in Europe, Asia, Africa and the US with practitioners based in London, Paris, Moscow and Hong Kong. We work with our Alliance partners Gleiss Lutz and Stibbe, as well as other “best friend” firms in Europe and in the US.
The firm’s premier reputation for dispute resolution is replicated in our tax practice. Our combination of tax expertise and dispute resolution experience enables us to help clients resolve disputes out of court whilst at the same time preparing for litigation should it become unavoidable.
