For company directors navigating the off-payroll working rules, a common question is – what does inside IR35 mean exactly? IR35 stands for the Inland Revenue press release number 35, issued by what is now HMRC back in 1999 as part of that year’s budget. It came into force the following year and the government incorporated the full Intermediaries Legislation into the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003.

In the climb from contributor to leader, the rules quietly change. If you’re aiming for the summit, the air gets thinner—and what got you here won’t be enough to get you to the top (a concept first popularized by Marshall Goldsmith in his book What Got You Here Won’t Get You There ). What made you successful early in your finance career—technical accuracy, sharp analysis, flawless execution—won’t be what carries you to the next level.

Lawyers generally work really hard for their clients, to turn around work product. And then, they wait. and, wait. and, wait: to get paid. That’s largely because, while attorneys have been able to build out most of the payment process, the last part – you know, the part where the law firm actually gets paid – is still most ly entirely dependent on the client.
