HMRC files winding-up petition against fee-share firm Mezzle

HMRC has agreed not to advertise the petition or take further action for now. Mezzle, founded in 2021 by Kang and Raj Sumal, runs a fee-share model with 35 lawyers across London, Birmingham, Manchester, Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

The petition comes as Kang and Sumal are embroiled in a separate shareholder dispute. Non-executive director Jeff Zindani has also recently stepped down from the board.
