This work covers reclaiming value added tax charged by HM Revenue & Customs where a refund is due, such as overcharged or incorrectly claimed VAT. A solicitor in this area drafts and submits VAT refund claims, reviews invoices and VAT returns, and communicates with HMRC on the client’s behalf. They may also gather supporting documents, challenge HMRC decisions, and represent the client at any follow‑up discussions or hearings when a refund is disputed or denied.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The main stakes are recovering money that is legally due and avoiding losses from incorrect refusals or delays. A solicitor provides guidance on deadlines, required evidence, and the procedures for reviewing HMRC decisions, including potential appeals to the Tax Tribunal, ensuring the client’s position is protected at every step.
