SETTLEMENT OF TAX AVOIDANCE SCHEMES
HMRC Tax Avoidance: Strategic Settlement & Defence
If you’ve participated in a tax avoidance scheme, whether via an umbrella company, disguised remuneration, or a marketed loan arrangement, you are now likely in the crosshairs of HMRC’s Counter Avoidance Directorate.
What was presented as a "legal loophole" is now a personal financial risk. As a specialist tax litigation solicitor, I provide the independent, impartial advice that scheme promoters cannot. Under current legislation, relying on advice from an "interested party" (the promoter) is no longer a valid defence against HMRC penalties.
HOW I PROTECT YOUR POSITION
I help directors and individuals move from a state of uncertainty to a structured resolution. My services include:
INDEPENDENT SCHEME REVIEW
An honest assessment of your arrangement’s viability and the likelihood of success at a Tax Tribunal.
LOAN CHARGE RESOLUTION
Addressing liabilities for loans dating back to 2010 and negotiating "Time to Pay" arrangements.
SETTLEMENT NEGOTIATIONS
Navigating the outcome of the Second Independent Loan Charge Review terms to close open enquiries and settle liabilities before they escalate.
APNS & FOLLOWER NOTICES
Managing representations against Accelerated Payment Notices and Follower Notices to mitigate penalties.
WHY CHOOSE A TAX LITIGATION SPECIALIST?
HMRC’s settlement terms are becoming increasingly stringent. By working with me directly, you avoid the overheads of a large firm while gaining senior level expertise.
We focus on corrective action, minimising interest and penalties while ensuring you aren't paying more than is legally required.
