Tax Counsel

We have great relationships with barristers in most tax chambers in London, and can assist you in choosing the right barrister for the purpose, drafting instructions to counsel and attending conferences with counsel on appropriate matters. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Locations

We have an impressive international network of contacts which enable us to bring together expertise in a number of jurisdictions and coordinate the provision of holistic, multi-jurisdictional tax advice. The service we provide is primarily the sourcing and coordination of this advice. Whilst it may appear straightforward to obtain such advice directly, by using Hotchkiss Associates Limited, the right questions can be asked upfront to bring the advice together quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively

Offer Documents

Offshore funds are becoming increasingly more complex from a structural perspective and investors much more sophisticated. What is often of paramount importance is that the tax structuring is correct and the fund is operated to adhere with any tax planning which has been sought. We can advise on:

  • the wording of the tax section of offer documentation
    • corporate residence
    • international tax structuring to maximise return for investors
    • the application of the EU Savings Directive to fund managers and administrators

     

Offshore Structuring

The law is complex with this area of taxation being fraught with pitfalls and it is relatively easy to make mistakes or overlook liabilities. We have the experience in providing such advice to trustees, beneficiaries and settlors.

Tax Planning Review

Many tax advisers will liaise with trustees and the directors of companies to implement tax planning. Very often the trustees or directors may not be familiar with the issues facing them or the risks. In addition such advice is often provided upfront and many years later the original advisers may not be involved, often leaving trustees and/or directors of companies to pick up the pieces.

We have experience in many tax planning matters and can provide assistance to trustees and the directors of companies in understanding and following tax planning advice on a continuous basis.

UK Inward Investment

Investing in the UK for non-UK resident individuals, companies and trustees is relatively straightforward; however, such investment can often results in some sort of tax exposure depending on the nature of the investment, the transactions or the income generated.
