Tax Disputes and Investigations

Taking on or being chased by HMRC can be incredibly stressful. Our experts provide practical advice on any dispute with HMRC and have extensive experience supporting, among others, ultra high net worth individuals, corporates charities, and trusts.

No matter the issue at hand, our goal will always be to reach resolution as soon as possible, not least due to the reputational impact and cost saving of avoiding litigation.  We can assist clients through Alternative Dispute Resolution to negotiate a settlement with HMRC, particularly when communications have broken down, or there is a misunderstanding of the facts.

However, where litigation is unavoidable, we regularly act on full-on appeals before the Tax tribunals or higher courts.

We are able to call upon our long-standing expertise in criminal law and work in tandem with our specialist civil tax disputes and investigations practitioners to obtain the best possible result. This means we are here to help, no matter what situation you find yourself in.

We understand that HMRC investigations are stressful and can have serious consequences. We have an excellent track record of resolving matters before charges are brought wherever possible and protecting our clients’ interests when the authorities are determined to pursue criminal litigation.
