Close, but not that close

Article Abstract:

Solicitors Garrett & Co are, in July 1993, to open a firm in close association with the accountancy firm Arthur Anderson and this move is seen by many as a considerable challenge to the current UK ban against solicitors becoming involved in multi-discipline partnerships. In some other European countries, auditors and tax practitioners are prohibited from joining forces and in others the same applies to accountants and lawyers. The trend is, however, towards companies looking to find their tax and legal advice within the same organisation.
