Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘I use the Browne Jacobson tax team to support me on corporate transactions, particularly where the other party has a tax team acting on the transaction. The Browne Jacobson tax team are excellent and able to match the expertise and experience of the tax teams from the largest firms. I have not come across another firm's tax team that provides corporate support for other lawyers. We have worked together for 17 years.’

  • ‘Andrew Noble is excellent. He has the highest levels of experience and expertise and still manages to put difficult and complex tax matters into language that even a corporate lawyer can understand.’

  • ‘Browne Jacobson have a good approach to all projects, every person I speak to has the same clear and friendly approach. They listen, give clear quotes and when things change are up front about costs, which helps when budgeted for advice.’

  • ‘Andrew Noble has a great tax knowledge and practically how tax law will impact you or your project, however what makes his advice so valuable is the ability to translate this knowledge into something understandable and actionable.’
