Business adviser and partner at Francis Clark's Tavistock office Guy Talbot, said: 'We are absolutely delighted with this news. Winning the best tax practice award is a testimony to the quality of the team we have built at Francis Clark who not only bring undoubted expertise to the tax advice services we offer but absolute commitment and determination to always be the best.'
