Stamp
Duty
Although this tax is usually self assessed and
administered by our clients' Solicitors, we have a working knowledge,
in order to advise our clients in relation to business and equity
transactions.
In particular, we can advice on the stamp duty implicaions
of:
- Share transfers, including claiming relevant exemptions,
- Business acquisitions.
Most people consider stamp duty as an unwelcome
addition to the cost of an already expensive purchase. As well
as seeking to reduce this tax, our tax technicians, whom include
ex tax inspectors in number, will communicate with your Solicitor,
so that you have peace of mind that your tax affairs are being
dealt with in a professional manner.
