Fielding an ‘extremely responsive’ team, Weightmans LLP’s tax practice offers strategic counsel to a diverse roster of clients, including corporates, financial institutions, and advisory firms, with a strong focus on the tax elements of transactions such as mergers, sales, and investments. A notable area of strength is the firm’s work on employee incentive arrangements, with particular expertise in implementing enterprise management incentive schemes (EMI). Spearheading the team is the ‘technically astute and commercial’ Haydn Rogan, who is a trusted advisor to management teams, investors, and private equity houses, assisting them with transactional and commercial tax planning.

Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
'I have found Haydn to be extremely user friendly, responsive, cost efficient, technically astute and commercial at the same time. His ability to blend the latter 2 qualities is what sets him apart from the competition and clients really appreciate his ability to cut through the technical detail and focus on what really matters to get the deal done. I cannot recommend him highly enough.'
'Haydn always over delivers, he turns documents around within very tight timeframes and is always a pleasure to deal with.'
'Extremely responsive, quick turnaround with commercial advice.'
