Only those taxpayers selected as test cases will need full legal representation.
Will they select test cases for each variant of the scheme (by promoter)? Don't know.
Are all the schemes structurally similar enough that they will just lump them all together? Don't know.
The ideal scenario is where the promoter defends the scheme and appoints (pays for) legal representation.
Where that is not the case, for whatever reason, then taxpayers selected as test cases would be left to fend for themselves. This is not good for anyone else in the scheme whose fate also depends on the outcome.
Whether you use Michael, another advisor or do it yourselves, you are going to need as many people as possible contributing to a fighting fund to pay for decent representation if this goes to tribunal.
