Specialist Land Tax Advice:
Indemnified & Evidence-Based
Stamp Duty laws are complex. Conveyancers are cautious.
If your transaction falls outside the ordinary—such as mixed-use property, linked transactions, or uninhabitable dwellings—conveyancers often require a formal, specialist opinion before they feel safe filing a return.
My role is to provide that specialist analysis. I am the author of two books on Land Tax and an expert by experience, having successfully handled nearly 500 reclaim cases and hundreds of advisory matters across SDLT, LTT, and LBTT.
Scroll down and you will see a large number of question-and-answer emails from various people. All correspondence has been anonymised for privacy reasons.

The Function of Indemnified Advice
Conveyancers request my independent opinion to minimise their legal risk. An insured, specialist letter provides the necessary confidence that your tax position is correct and supported by relevant law (such as the Finance Act 2003).
🛡️ Insurance Particulars: My advisory work is covered by a professional indemnity policy issued by Markel International Insurance Company Limited (up to £250,000 per claim). This protects you and ensures any future HMRC enquiry can be defended using verified documentation.
Next Steps and Process
If a formal engagement is required, the process is simple:
- 1. Review & Confer: I review your documents and outline the advice. We confer to ensure you are happy to proceed.
- 2. Formal Estimate: I raise a fee estimate for your digital acceptance.
- 3. Draft Advice: I draft the formal letter and send it to you for approval.
- 4. Finalise & Invoice: Once you approve the draft, the final letter is issued and the invoice is generated.
- 5. Submission: You provide the letter to your conveyancer to support your self-assessment.
Fee Structure
Indemnified Letters of Advice:
£350 – £750
Fees are determined by complexity, HMRC risk level, and evidence volume (e.g., apportionment or multiple dwellings relief).
Enhanced Support
For matters requiring a tax agent to submit the return, I offer access to Compass SDLT.
- ✅ Dual-Protection: Two independent opinions (Mine + Compass).
- ✅ Full Submission: Compass acts as your Tax Agent to submit directly to HMRC.
Retrospective Claims
For reclaim cases, I operate on a strict No Win, No Fee basis.
I manage the entire process. The refund is paid directly to you. My fee is payable only after success. If the refund is later reclaimed by HMRC and the position cannot be defended, my fee is returned.
How to Start: Initial Assessment
Before engaging in the formal process, I need to understand your specific position. Please contact me via email with an outline of your circumstances.
I will give you a detailed explanation of your situation for free.
If you subsequently require indemnified advice, we can then discuss the next steps.
About: People usually come to me with complex questions their solicitor cannot answer, and after I clarify their position by email, they may leave a review or charitable donation, or, if a formal letter of advice is needed, I provide one for a fee that reflects both the expertise and the responsibility of defending that advice if a tax authority later enquires.
Below is an email exchange where someone asked a difficult question, and I have responded as clearly and accurately as I can based on the facts given.
