Top 10 of 1,320 law firms for Option to Tax, Land Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

An option to tax is the process by which a land or property owner elects to tax the sale or rental of land for VAT, allowing VAT-registered buyers to reclaim input tax. A solicitor helps clients decide whether to exercise the option, drafts and submits the election to HM Revenue & Customs, and advises on the implications for sale, leases, and ongoing recharges. They also coordinate with surveyors and accountants to manage partial exemption and post-transfer VAT considerations.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor explains the election, its impact on VAT recoveries, and the consequences of withdrawal or expiry, including how it interacts with partial exemption rules and ongoing leases. They handle the drafting and filing of documents, ensure compliance with HMRC guidance, and liaise with the client’s commercial advisers to align VAT treatments with business plans.

Chloe Edwards

Tagged solicitor Chloe Edwards

We are incredibly grateful for the outstanding support and expertise provided by Chloe Edwards in helping us win a public inquiry to prevent the creation of a public right of way across our land. This case took nine long years to reach its conclusion, and throughout that time, Chloe remained dedicated, professional, and incredibly thorough in her approach. Chloe was also assisted by Daisy Cuthbert, whose support was invaluable throughout the process. Together, they ensured that every detail was carefully handled, and their teamwork was evident in the success of our case. In addition, Chloe instructed Kathrine Barnes, a barrister from 39 Essex Chambers, who provided expert legal representation. The combination of Chloe, Daisy, and Kathrine made for an exceptional team, and we couldn’t have asked for better support throughout this long and complex matter. Chloe’s attention to detail, strategic thinking, and consistent communication made the entire process much more manageable. We are absolutely thrilled with the successful outcome and highly recommend Chloe Edwards to anyone in need of a skilled, dedicated solicitor.
