To become a qualified tax lawyer, you need to meet the following requirements:
(a) tax lawyers must be familiar with the business model and business essence. Before providing tax planning and other tax-related legal services, tax lawyers need to thoroughly understand the different tax costs and legal consequences arising from different business models. On the premise of knowing the business purpose of decision-makers, tax lawyers need to accurately grasp different business models and business essence, and then it is possible to provide tax-related legal services, otherwise it is possible to take another road.
(2) Tax lawyers need compound talents with comprehensive legal knowledge. Require tax lawyers to engage in tax-related legal business. They not only need to master the knowledge and experience of litigation business and non-litigation business (especially financial and capital operation business), but also need to be familiar with business operation mode and be proficient in relevant tax payment practices.
(3) Tax lawyers need to have a global perspective and the ability to communicate in international languages such as English. The business paradise of tax lawyers is tax consultation and tax planning in cross-border transactions. Because each country's tax sovereignty is a part of state power, each country will formulate its own favorable tax policies based on its own interests, and these policies are often contradictory or even conflicting. In these contradictions and conflicts, tax lawyers can provide customers with a wide range of tax planning services on the premise of being familiar with tax systems and tax agreements in different countries. At the same time, considering the inconsistency of official languages in different countries, it is very important to master communication skills such as English.
(d) Tax lawyers need to have good contacts.
(5) Tax lawyers need to be proficient in cooperation with other business lawyers, accountants, tax agents and other service personnel in order to win. The close cooperation between tax lawyers and other personnel is often not only conducive to the improvement of business, but also essential to open up markets and expand business. Other lawyers, accountants and tax agents have a large number of high-quality customers, but their services alone cannot fully meet the needs of customers. Therefore, after deeply understanding the dialectical win-win relationship between tax lawyers and other intermediary service personnel, we should choose a reasonable cooperation model to finally meet the customer's "one-stop" service demand and realize the rapid growth and improvement of tax lawyers by leaps and bounds.
