As some of you will recall, a few months ago, following an increase in the number of insolvency-related inquiries, I reached out to my LinkedIn contacts for help in finding professionals to join my team at Nexa Law. I am pleased to report that the search exceeded expectations and I now have three excellent practitioners in my team and one in training!
The significant expansion in the number of insolvency instructions has meant that my tax practice has taken a hit as I have been too busy to take on new instructions and have been turning clients and Nexa colleagues away or outside the firm.
Not anymore though:
It gives me great pleasure to announce the arrival of Simon Newsham to Nexa Law.
Simon is both a Solicitor and CTA (Chartered Tax Adviser). He brings a wealth of experience and expertise to our firm and will work closely with our colleagues and clients, to provide them with a combination of legal and taxation skills to provide the optimum solution for complex situations where tax knowledge is crucial to avoiding future problems and maintaining business value.
Simon’s arrival will allow me to concentrate on growing Nexa Law’s insolvency capacity as we continue to see an influx of requests for adjournments/injunctions following the issuing of winding up petitions – predominantly focussing on those issued by HMRC who are being quite active in this space, and a ten-fold increase in applications for validation orders for clients with frozen bank accounts as a result of same.
Welcome aboard, Simon Newsham! Here’s to a successful journey ahead at Nexa Law!
