The tax practice at Deloitte, the business advisory firm, is celebrating success after scooping three prestigious accolades at two separate tax award ceremonies.

The Deloitte R&D Tax Services team has been named Best Big Four Tax Team title at the Lexis Nexis Taxation Awards. This is the second time in four years that the R&D team, established in 2003, has triumphed in this top category.

Deloitte won a second victory at the Lexis Nexis Taxation Awards, with its VAT Litigation team being named Best VAT Team. This major achievement recognises Deloitte’s market leading litigation team and the cutting edge work it carries out for clients in the UK and European Courts.

On the same day, Deloitte was named UK Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year at the International Tax Review (ITR) European Tax Awards. The Deloitte transfer pricing group was recognised for the innovation, complexity and volume of specific deals and transactions, as well as representation in government bodies, panels and studies.

David Sproul, head of tax at Deloitte, said: “These outstanding achievements demonstrate the breadth, depth and quality of our tax practice and the services we deliver. The accolades not only recognise the expertise and dedication of our people, but also demonstrate Deloitte’s commitment to our clients.”
