The Dixcart Tax Team in the UK office is a busy department, largely due to the fact that many of the vehicles and individuals to whom we provide advice, have a UK element and/or assets in the UK.

The three members of the UK Tax Team, we are introducing you to today are; Paul Webb, Karen Dyerson and Ravi Lal.

Tax Advice
