Spear’s Review

Rawlinson & Hunter partner Paul Huggins counts everyone from hedge fund managers to Formula One drivers as clients, giving them ‘specific, bespoke advice’ on a broad range of tax matters. A specialist in the UK’s statutory residence test, remittance basis users and the taxation of mixed funds, he heads up the firm’s London department and its employment solutions team. 

‘My strongest attribute is being able to translate complex advice into simple material that a client can digest,’ says Huggins. He aims for ‘simplicity and clarity’ when advising clients – no mean feat given the UK’s ‘incredibly complex’ tax system, which is ‘changing on a fairly regular basis’.

He joined Rawlinson & Hunter in 2006 and subsequently qualified as a chartered accountant in 2009 and a chartered tax adviser in 2010.
