Tax

Axiom houses advocates who exude excellence when handling contentious and non-contentious briefs for individuals and businesses, and who also frequently represent HMRC. The advocates are experienced and knowledgeable in relation to both direct and indirect taxation and, according to one source, have "real commercial awareness." They are skilled in appellate matters taking place before the Upper Tribunal and the courts. Members have recently appeared in AD Bly v HMRC, an interpretational challenge regarding unfunded pension provisions, and whether they provide a corporation tax deduction.
