LITE has been set up to provide a proactive service to clients that are either looking to continue their international development or embark on their first overseas venture. These clients are looking for excellence in service, clear communication and reassurance that their business is in safe hands.

 

Being part of a global alliance within the Accountancy, Tax, Legal and Advisory Sectors is clearly an advantage; it delivers recognition of global capabilities and enables the members to promote these capabilities to attract local business.

 

The purpose of the alliance is to act as an indicator of the key values and quality standard that LITE International members can apply around the world. It is a brand that can build confidence and inspire people to choose LITE International member firms and feel confident and assured in their choice.

 

• LITE has been set up to give clients access to top-notch international tax service.

• The alliance performs quality control checks on member firms before admittance into the league to ensure that the quality control procedures within those firms are in line with international standards.

• The purpose of this is to ensure that clients using the alliance receive the same level of professional advice and support as they would do in their home territory.

 

Our global reach, trusted advisors, and strategic partner programs provide a unique combination of services seldom found in any law firm, regardless of size. It is like having that very special lawyer and close friend at your side — a trustworthy confidant who knows your business as you do. 

 

This global platform has been built through our expansion to more than 20 countries around the world, connecting high-quality tax practitioners who can provide diversified legal services to a broader base of clientele. LITE members now have the privilege of operating on a world stage, sharing knowledge and resources with trusted partners dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of the legal profession.

​

Five Fundamental Rules:

 

1. Excellence in tax: Our members have concluded their international tax LLM in the Netherlands. They are all meticulously vetted for integrity and quality, to provide concierge, partner-level services to clients with family and personal needs at fraction of the cost of Big Law.

 

2. Equal opportunity / Fair Play:  LITE can help bring a sense of balance to the vastness of the legal marketplace, enabling law firms of smaller sizes the opportunity to compete on an equal footing with the giants of the profession while remaining agile enough to still offer a personal touch. Members enjoy the advantages of a large firm in terms of scope and reach without sacrificing the flexibility afforded those dedicated to providing exceptional client service at a reasonable rate.

 

3. Non-profit association: The league is not a business, so it will not ask its members for fees meant to be turned into profits for other members.

 

4. Sharing tax knowledge: The league is also meant to provide its members with new and continued tax knowledge by means of seminars, congress, publishing opportunities.

 

5. Client referrals: the trust established among members allow them to share cases and clients among themselves.
