Tom Scott, head of McDermott’s London office tax practice, said in this interview that trends in the practice include “an upturn in transactional work, with more large cross-border deals actually reaching fruition,” and “real momentum building … to produce real pressure on traditional structures “ related to base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) in corporate taxes. “Things change, and as advisers we need to change with them,” Mr. Scott noted, adding that he was “very lucky” to be working with fellow London partners James Ross and Matthew Herrington.
