Warwickshire-based chartered accountants and business advisers, Burgis & Bullock have expanded their specialist legal services team.

Deborah Allan, joined B&B in April 2004 as a tax consultant to support the firm’s offices in Warwickshire and Oxon. Deborah will offer her expertise and support to the firm’s legal services team. In particular she will be reviewing ways in which partners in legal practices can mitigate their personal tax liabilities.

Wende Hubbard, head of the firm’s Legal Services Team, comments: “We believe that it is important to provide our clients with a specialist service. Our team of experts can offer a wide range of advice and practical experience in all aspects of accounting, taxation and business issues relevant to the legal profession. The introduction of Deborah’s expertise and on-site support will augment this service.

The legal profession faces many new challenges following the recent publication of Sir David Clementi’s report on the future structure of legal practices and the regulatory regime in which they operate. We hope to ensure that all of our clients are well placed to deal with any potential changes that might follow as a result of this review.”
