The firm has unrivalled strength in real estate and real estate finance taxation and, as real estate transactions have become more complex, significantly greater tax input is required. We acted on unit trust transactions valued at over £3bn for clients during 2006/7 and our team is among the most highly regarded in property funds and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Outside of real estate, the Corporate Tax team helps a wide range of businesses including retailers, banks and insurers, government departments, public bodies and technology companies in a large variety of transactions. The team engages in both UK and cross-border investment, restructurings, financings and flotations.
