About

Provided by Peters & Peters Solicitors LLP

Peters & Peters is known for its robust tax investigations practice with a strong reputation for defending corporate clients in criminal prosecutions and HMRC enforcement actions. The UK Government has placed unlawful tax avoidance at the heart of its enforcement priorities for the next few years. Peters & Peters provides expert advice to companies and individuals targeted by HM Revenue & Customs to recover unpaid taxes, impose financial penalties and, in the most serious cases, prosecute.

Our team of expert lawyers has many years’ experience specialising in advising corporates and individuals which become subject to tax investigations. This experience is vitally important in addressing the vast array of enforcement powers available to tax agencies. Wherever possible we encourage non-contentious resolution of investigations by HM Revenue and Customs who have unique powers of non-prosecution compromise. We are particularly skilled at ensuring that problems, which could be investigated and prosecuted criminally, are resolved by the payment of the tax due with interest and an appropriately mitigated penalty. Building on decades of experience and expertise, we have an excellent working relationship with tax authorities and expert forensic accountants. Where criminal prosecution cannot be avoided, our core experience as criminal litigators along with our tax experience place us in an unrivalled position to advise clients.
