Tax Controversy
Resolving disputes with tax authorities
Reduce the risk of negative outcomes from tax audits with Deloitte’s dispute resolution expertise.
We help business and individuals to both prevent and resolve tax audits utilising our expertise, insights and technology to deliver the optimal strategy for resolving disputes.
Tax controversies typically are unique, urgent and inconvenient. Without proper guidance and coordination, businesses and individuals can spend enormous amounts of time and resources addressing tax disputes across jurisdictions. In today’s tax landscape, where authorities investigate technical merit and analysis as well as implementation and motive, a range of skills including tax technical, dispute resolution strategy, and legal capability are required to deliver the optimal outcome.
Deloitte's UK Tax Controversy team incorporates over 70 specialists with a range of skills and experience, including former senior tax authority employees, alternative dispute resolution professionals, solicitors and tax litigation specialists, all supporting you throughout the tax dispute resolution cycle from the opening of the audit through to resolution. We work across all taxes and duties and, through our litigation experts, can provide tribunal and court representation in the UK. We bring the right blend of skills and experience to each individual dispute drawing upon our extensive experience of processes such as Business Risk Review + (BRR+), Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), High Risk Corporates Programme (HRCP), High Risk Wealth Programme (HRWP), Code of Practice 8 and 9 (COP8/9), Profit Diversion Compliance Facility (PDCF), Mutual Agreement Procedure (MAP) and Litigation (including Judicial Review).
