FANSELOWS - Key Persons
Following initial practice in a national firm, Jeff went into practice with Jock Fanselow in a firm called Fanselow and Tyler, a predecessor to our current firm. He left that practice to move to IRD where his roles included heading the legal team and the bindng rulings unit. Following that position, Jeff moved to Australia to work as a tax specialist in a national Australian firm. On returning to New Zealand Jeff set up his own small firm and acted as a consultant to Fanselows and a national law firm, following which he returned for 18 months to the IRD to complete a project. He is a very experienced tax practitioner and also works in commercial, trust and property matters. Jeff can advise on comprehensive restructuring, tax implications of most transasactions and general, personal, property or commercial restructuiring and estate planning. Jeff regularly provides opinions to other law and accounting firms on tax issues for their clients and welcomes instructions in this regard.
