Wiggin LLP

Tax.

Sue has over 35 years of steering media and technology businesses through the maze of corporate tax.

“I have an exceptional range of experience advising corporates and entrepreneurs on all aspects of tax – from VAT to stamp duty, gaming duty to corporation tax, PAYE/national insurance to withholding tax. One particular focus is entrepreneurs and their investors – advising on their journey from start-up to exit to ensure their commercial aspirations are fully realised as tax efficiently as possible. Motivation of employees through share schemes and equity awards is key.

I bring creative solutions to the tax conundrums that more established businesses and groups inevitably face in their M&A, restructuring and venture capital deals. I crack the issues and deliver my solutions jargon free, without losing sight of the commercial context.”
