Tim Brown, praised for his ‘excellent indirect tax knowledge’, covers VAT, customs and excise duties, and has prior experience working within the HMRC. Denis Edwards maintains an academic profile alongside his practice, which includes acting for the taxpayer as sole counsel in HMRC v Qubic Advisory Services Limited, a dispute as to the VAT treatment of supplies of gold bullion.
