Top firms open new front in war for specialist tax talent

Comment

There have been a number of the "magic circle" that have looked at expanding their tax offering to take on the Big 4 firms in a number of areas, Transfer Pricing being the main one. The interest in expanding their reach generally rises when the mainstay of their work load, all things "transactional", is thinner on the ground. As we eventually move onto an upward curve it will most likely be back to business as usual for the tax departments of law firms - it is not that tax lawyers are not capable of carrying out the work, it is more that their internal clients/work providers (corporate/PE/Funds/Real Estate teams) want to have the tax department at their beck and call, rather then heading off and doing their own work
