Tax - Scotland (Bar)

Band 2
Individual Editorial

Gordon Watt is fast rising as a go-to junior in complex taxation matters. His expertise covers both advisory and contentious briefs, supported by his work as a chartered tax adviser.

Strengths

I think he is excellent in terms of all advice in relation to tax. He is very pragmatic and my go-to for a tax opinion on most things.

Gordon has genuine experience in a niche area and is able to communicate his advice in a client-friendly way.

His advice is always quite clear. Gordon keeps things succinct and focused, which is really helpful for presenting things to clients.
