Paul Clayton

I am a Director at DJH Halesowen (formerly Nicklin) and a member of both the Institute of Chartered Tax Advisers and Association of Taxation Technicians. With over 25 years’ experience in tax, I advise clients on structuring their tax affairs to ensure they are efficient, robust and understandable.

My approach centres on taking complex tax regulations and translating them into practical, actionable strategies that make sense for each client’s unique circumstances and long-term objectives.

• What makes DJH great is

  Our commitment to integrity, our team and delivering excellent client service. These aren’t just words on our website – they’re the principles that guide every interaction and decision we make, creating an environment where both our people and clients can thrive.

• My most trusted piece of advice in business is

  Listen more than I speak. In order to provide the best advice to our clients, it’s imperative that we understand their challenges and ambitions so we can tailor our advice accordingly. The best solutions come from truly understanding the problem first.

• On a Saturday morning you'll usually find me

  Either helping manage my daughter’s football team or at a Park Run if we have a free week. Both activities keep me active and connected with the community – whether it’s encouraging young athletes or challenging myself to improve my own fitness.
