Former UK head of tax at Clifford Chance Dan Neidle has been winding up people since quitting the Magic Circle law firm last year to become a tax campaigner.

It has been a busy year for Neidle, who in the past 12 months helped to bring down former chancellor Nadhim Zahawi after investigating his tax affairs. He has also taken shots at the tax arrangements of the UK private equity industry and law firm partners.
