HMRC Disputes and Appeals

Specialist advice on complex disputes, investigations and litigation involving HMRC

I advise businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals on contentious tax matters where strategic decisions at an early stage materially affect the outcome.

My practice is focused on disputes with HMRC involving significant tax exposure, procedural complexity, and the need for specialist litigation strategy.

I act across a broad range of HMRC disputes, from investigations and statutory appeals to judicial review and tribunal litigation.

I am instructed in cases where HMRC is withholding or refusing repayment of tax, including VAT repayment claims and overpaid tax.

My Approach

My practice is litigation-led and strategic.

I advise with a view to:

• identifying the strongest legal and evidential position at the outset

• challenging unlawful or procedurally defective HMRC action where appropriate

• structuring disputes strategically to maximise prospects of favourable resolution

• preparing matters for tribunal or court where litigation is required

Who I Act For

My clients include:

• businesses facing HMRC investigations or assessments

• entrepreneurs and owner-managed businesses

• property developers

• high-net-worth individuals

• internationally based clients with UK tax disputes

• accountants and advisers seeking specialist litigation input

Fixed-Fee Initial Advice

Fixed-fee strategic advice is available where appropriate for suitable matters.

In appropriate cases, I may be instructed on a contingent or success-linked fee basis where recovery depends on resolving a substantive dispute with HMRC.
