Working closely with clients’ corporate, commercial, in-house tax and finance teams, we focus on minimising tax exposure while maximising available reliefs. As a leading law firm in the insurance sector, our tax team combines deep industry insight with technical excellence, advising on areas such as VAT and IPT, cross-border structuring, the establishment of UK insurance businesses, M&A transactions, tax W&I insurance, and professional indemnity matters for both insurers and insureds.
