What a solicitor handles in these matters
Solicitors assess the provisions, structures and schemes used in property transactions, including how anti-avoidance rules apply to VAT, stamp duty land tax, or corporate reorganisations, and how to respond to HMRC challenges and disclosures. They analyse potential liability, plan compliant structures, and liaise with clients’ tax advisors to manage risk throughout the deal lifecycle.
