Amanda took silk in 2015 and is widely regarded as a leading tax and trusts practitioner. "A standout silk in this area. She's extremely good with clients, and gives very clear, practical advice." ‘She has a strong presence and an ability to command the room.’ She has a thriving advisory practice in private client and corporate tax and is a regular litigator, most recently appearing in the Supreme Court and in the Mauritian trust tax case Lee & Bunter v HMRC; for the wife in the UK's highest recorded contested divorce case; and for the applicants in a number of judicial review challenges currently being brought against HMRC. Amanda's practice continues to involve a substantial amount of advice, planning and structuring work particularly for ultra-high net worth individuals and their associated corporations and trusts including offshore domicile and residency issues and pension taxation issues.
