mfg Solicitors has strengthened its tax and succession planning division with the return of Tom Evans as a partner, based in the firm’s Birmingham office. A specialist advising owner-managed businesses and farming families, Evans rejoins the firm after a period at a national practice.
He will report to partner Sally Smith and work closely with the corporate team, handling matters including succession and estate planning, inheritance tax and capital gains tax planning, trusts, partnership agreements and support for corporate restructures. This marks Evans’ second stint at the firm, having originally joined in 2017.
Smith said Evans is an ‘exceptional solicitor’ who adds ‘another dimension’ to the team and is ‘already making an impact’ with clients and colleagues. She added the firm is ‘building an extremely strong tax and succession planning team’.
Evans described his return as a ‘wonderful opportunity’ and ‘the perfect time’, adding that it felt a ‘natural fit’ and that he is ‘keen to play a key role’ in developing the firm’s tax, succession and agricultural private client work.
