Our objective is to provide a service which is consistently above and beyond normal professional standards. OUR SERVICES In this section of our website, you can read about some of the services which we provide. Many of our clients call upon our expertise across a number of service areas. Whatever your specific requirements may be, we aspire to deliver our work to a consistently high standard both in terms of the quality of our advice and in overall client experience. What do we mean by this? Fundamentally, we seek to ensure that there are certain hallmarks which will always be present in our approach to service delivery. Our objective is to provide a service which is consistently above and beyond normal professional standards. The Partners at Rawlinson & Hunter are all well-known specialists in their respective fields, and the majority of their time is spent actively engaged in leading the advisory work for their clients.

The Firm’s culture is to give clear advice and direction, rather than fence-sitting. This approach runs through Rawlinson & Hunter’s DNA.

- Tax Investigations | Rawlinson & Hunter LLP
HMRC has been reorganised with the objective of maximising its ability to close the ‘tax gap’. As part of this, taxpayers with significant wealth or complexity have been corralled into tax offices serviced by the Wealthy Team, the focus of which is to identify cases for enquiry. TAX INVESTIGATIONS HMRC has been reorganised with the objective of maximising its ability to close the ‘tax gap’. As part of this, taxpayers with significant wealth or complexity have been corralled into tax offices serviced by the Wealthy Team, the focus of which is to identify cases for enquiry. Many of our private clients are serviced by these specialist tax offices and we are therefore used to dealing with them on a daily basis. Our experience is that HMRC personnel are better trained than ever before and better equipped to detect irregularities or grey areas in a taxpayer’s tax return. They also have a wealth of information from third parties, both in the UK and abroad, against which they can cross-check the accuracy of a return and identify potential omissions. Tax enquiries are a fact of life for clients with complex affairs, both private individuals and companies. Most of these enquiries are not random, but are selected carefully by the HMRC officer because there are aspects of a submitted tax return which warrant further scrutiny and might result in an increased tax liability. Sometimes, the tone of HMRC enquiry letters can seem accusatory or threatening, and can be a source of worry to clients who regard themselves as diligent and honest in their tax affairs. At Rawlinson & Hunter we recognise the emotional stress which a tax enquiry can place on a client, as well as the disruption to personal and business life which can result. Our experience allows us to demystify HMRC correspondence and explain the issues at stake in a clear and precise manner. We represent our clients in correspondence, calls and meetings with HMRC with the objective of bringing the enquiry to a successful conclusion as soon as possible. Sometimes, new clients come to us because irregularities have been identified in their tax affairs, either by them or by HMRC in the course of an enquiry. We are experienced in making a full disclosure to HMRC, presenting the strongest technical interpretation and negotiating with them to reduce any tax geared penalty to the statutory minimum allowed under the law.

This has enabled us, over time, to gain an enviable reputation in the profession for our services to the private client and business community in London and internationally. We are different, as is our way of working. Our partners like to get to know their clients well and lead much of the advice in person, often face to face. Our partners are all leaders in their field who are trained to look at the bigger picture. Both private and corporate clients can benefit equally from our skill at finding solutions to match their own individual financial needs. The Firm is the founder of an international grouping of professional firms which specialises in the delivery of tax, accounting and administration services. Our overseas offices stretch around the globe, from Guernsey to our Swiss offices in Geneva and Zurich, and from Bermuda, the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands to Singapore via our offices in Australia and New Zealand. Across all of our offices, you can expect a high quality of personal, partner-led, service.

TRANSACTION SUPPORT We act for publicly quoted and private companies, as well as entrepreneurs and shareholders, to offer an extensive range of transactional and advisory services. Successful businesses are constantly growing, changing and expanding, whether organically or by acquisition. Our bespoke approach provides timely and succinct reports to directors, shareholders and finance providers and has given us a reputation for delivering real value at a cost effective price. We offer comprehensive advice on how to structure transactions tax efficiently, such as acquisitions, disposals, restructuring, mergers, demergers, reconstructions and IPOs. We also have a great deal of expertise in obtaining clearance from HM Revenue & Customs for transactions where appropriate. Buying and selling a business or part of a business can prove a huge distraction to the investors, targets and the management team. This tension inevitably distracts focus from the day to day operations. Our multi-disciplinary team of experienced partners and staff can ease some of this burden while ensuring that a calm eye is kept on the financial and commercial opportunities which these changes inevitably bring. The areas where we typically might provide support include transaction advice and support, acquisition and disposal related tax and VAT advice, pre-disposal health checks, financial and tax due diligence (for vendor or buyer), exit route planning for investors, management buy-outs and buy-ins, key employee retention and incentivisation and succession planning. Our approach to all transactional due diligence work is to ensure that our partners and senior staff fully participate in the project, ensuring that our subsequent advice focuses on the key issues that we see facing the transaction and is provided by those with sufficient experience to give such advice.

This can include topics such as: personal relocation advice; the structuring or dismantling of entities in the UK or overseas; tax-efficient holding structures; practical and remuneration planning for professional activities; advice around real estate used as the main home or for investment; succession planning; managing intergenerational wealth transfers; planning for philanthropic objectives. A career tax specialist, Trevor is capable of dealing with advice on all aspects of complex UK tax situations. He can handle the UK tax reporting for any individual or entity, whether situated in the UK or overseas, where there is a UK filing requirement. This includes routine tax return preparation, regularising cases of historical non-disclosure, or matters of enquiry with HMRC. Trevor has a particular interest in cross-border matters, which he has gained from years of advising individuals of foreign origin formerly using the remittance basis regime and now all individuals who use the Foreign Income and Gains (FIG) regime. Cross-border advice will often involve UK tax interaction with structures as overseas trusts or foundations, corporate-like entities, and consideration of international tax treaties. Two niche areas in which Trevor is an expert are the taxation of foreign policies of life insurance and the technical particularities that are relevant to international students. Trevor endeavours to perform the role of trusted adviser to his clients, quickly identifying his clients’ needs and advising with efficiency, calling on the depth of his experience. He is comfortable collaborating with other professional advisers and family offices in order to offer his clients holistic advice which is tax-efficient within the client’s wider objectives.

- US Taxes | Rawlinson & Hunter LLP
Several years ago we created our own team of ‘dualhandlers’ with the necessary technical expertise to deal with both UK and US tax filings. Led by two partners, the team has flourished and has a strong presence in the Firm’s overall private client offering, representing our clients with both HMRC and the IRS . US TAXES Several years ago we created our own team of ‘dualhandlers’ with the necessary technical expertise to deal with both UK and US tax filings. Led by two partners, the team has flourished and has a strong presence in the Firm’s overall private client offering, representing our clients with both HMRC (as agents) and the IRS (as enrolled agents). We now deal with many clients with UK and US, or just US, tax exposure. While many of them are US citizens or Green Card holders living in the UK, we also deal with US individuals living in third countries, US based individuals with international assets and non-US individuals who have a US tax footprint because they have US situated property or receive US income. Getting the tax filing correct in both countries is the first step. If we are dealing with a US individual who is resident in the UK, the priority is to ensure that the tax payable across the two jurisdictions is not higher than it needs to be. This requires our team to have an enhanced understanding of the remittance basis of taxation where the client is not domiciled in the UK, and full familiarity with the operation of the UK/US Double Tax Treaty. Another crucial point is to ensure that available tax credits are created at the right time, utilised in the right direction and not wasted. We can also deal with other US tax reporting, including Foreign Bank Account Reporting and the reporting of trust interests. But the compliance work is really just the tip of the iceberg. Pre-planning is highly recommended since there are so many mismatches of tax treatment in areas such as investment products and vehicles, charitable donations and the timing of income and gain recognition (to name but a few) which can increase the global tax burden for such clients, unless care is taken. We can also advise on UK and US anti-avoidance provisions, the interaction between US Estate and Gift Tax and UK Inheritance Tax, the treatment of trust interests in both jurisdictions, the tax treatment of pensions and the classification of business entities to list just a few of the areas of expertise which we have.
