Our Tax Group is one of the leading tax law practices in Ireland. We provide fully comprehensive and commercial tax advice to a broad range of domestic and international clients operating in all sectors of the Irish economy. We provide high value advice on important transactions and challenging situations. Our team is an integrated part of the firm’s wider legal practice for clients but also provides stand-alone tax advice.

The Group takes the lead on advisory, transactional and contentious matters or works on an integrated basis with other practice groups in the firm such as corporate, finance, capital markets, real estate and litigation. Our clients include large multinational public companies, many of the world’s leading financial institutions, government bodies and many of Ireland’s leading companies.

The Tax Group is involved in the development of Irish tax policy and Ireland’s response to international tax reform. The tax team has engaged extensively with the Irish Department of Finance, the EU Commission and OECD on new legislative proposals, responding to public consultations, legislative feedback statements and engaging with the Irish Department of Finance and European Commission on specific matters of concern for clients. Acting on our own and also as part of various collective efforts, we have been involved in efforts to strengthen the Irish tax system and to make Ireland a leading jurisdiction for international business.
