Specialised Experience in Complex Litigation
We are particularly experienced in the following areas:

Value Added Tax (VAT)

VAT disputes can arise from misunderstandings or disagreements over tax liability, exemptions, and credits. Our team provides expert guidance on VAT regulations, helps resolve disputes with tax authorities, and represents clients in litigation to secure favourable rulings.

Transfer Pricing

Transfer pricing disputes involve the allocation of income and expenses between related entities in different tax jurisdictions. These disputes can have significant financial implications. We assist clients in defending transfer pricing arrangements during audits, and representing them in litigation to address any challenges raised by tax authorities.

High-Value Income Tax Transactions

High net worth individuals often face scrutiny over complex income tax transactions. We can assist clients in defending such transactions during audits, where appropriate, and representing them in litigation to address any challenges raised by tax authorities.
