Testimonials

‘The TW team are very good at working through the likely outcomes with you and then provide clear advice on how a buyer should protect themselves against tax risks.’
‘They are commercial in their advice, which is not true of many other tax solicitors we work with. ’
‘Highly experienced and practical team, able to respond in a substantive way to matters very quickly.’
‘Highly knowledgeable staff able to quickly pick up the client requirements and move them forwards. They give advice that is required, rather than pontificating on legal musings.’
‘The team are creative, diligent and very responsive. I needed advice in respect of an esoteric issue, which was of material importance. The team delivered in a professional way.’
‘Advice is always very practical and also takes into account aspects outside of tax (e.g. influence on the business, etc.)’
‘Graham Samuel-Gibbon came across as technically very competent, intelligent in wrapping his head around the matrix of the ideas and structures, very responsive, and very pleasant to work with.’
‘Graham Samuel-Gibbon has been instrumental in our success. The quality and speed of information sourced (compared with other practices we have used in the past) was incredible.’
