Here, a leading tax lawyer reflects on the current state of affairs for practitioners, the intangibles and implications from a high-profile High Court proceeding, and what makes tax law such a meaningful vocational pathway.

In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Corrs Chambers Westgarth head of tax controversy Angelina Lagana about her career in this practice area and what she finds uplifting about it, the headline trends and challenges facing practitioners in this space, how different the climate may be for tax lawyers post-election, and how such practitioners are clamouring for change.

Lagana also delves into the PepsiCo proceedings in the High Court and the case’s implications and intangibles, what to look out for with the bench’s looming decision, what will constitute best practice for tax lawyers moving forward, and why the younger generation coming through the ranks should view tax law as an appealing vocational pathway.
