Temple Tax Chambers
The team at Temple Tax Chambers has significant expertise in indirect tax matters. Tim Brown‘s practice predominately focuses on VAT, customs, and excise duties, and he is regularly instructed by taxpayers as well as high-profile public entities. Denis Edwards is another notable member of the set, and he acted for the taxpayer in Lothian NHS Trust v HMRC, which concerned issues of whether the Trust had provided sufficient evidence to support its unrecovered VAT claims on private external work that had been done by scientific labs. Lyndsey Frawley is a specialised VAT advisor and tax litigator, and she represented BT against HMRC in a First-Tier Tribunal claim regarding a refund for overpaid VAT caused by a failure of the UK to implement an EU compliant bad relief regime between 1978 and 1989.
