The Team
Private Client
Tax Planning
Dawsons' private clients require increasingly sophisticated, often innovative tax planning advice. We are particularly expert in advising entrepreneurs, whilst also being able to provide sensible and practical advice to all types of individuals.

The team's work includes:
  • Capital gains tax planning through a wide range of reliefs including taper relief, enterprise investment deferral relief, retirement relief and roll-over relief. We regard the entrepreneur as one of our core client sectors and, in conjunction with the firm's corporate group, we consider that in London we can provide one of the premier all round services to the entrepreneur.
  • Inheritance tax planning in a wide variety of situations. This includes the preparation of sophisticated wills, often involving businesses and/or foreign assets and multi-jurisdictional issues.
  • Income tax planning for individuals and trusts, and corporation tax planning for companies.
  • Advising on tax issues arising from commercial and property transactions.
  • Advising on individual and business structures.
  • Tax planning for non-UK domiciled individuals and their trusts forms a major part of our work. We have a wealth of experience in advising off-shore trustees on both tax and trust interpretation issues
The team is committed to providing the highest quality of service in every respect, which entails a high level of partner involvement in devising and implementing tax planning arrangements for clients.
