Business Tax

Taxes represent a substantial part of your trading costs.  As the regulations become more complicated the penalties for getting it wrong become more severe.

• Identifying the most tax efficient structure for your business

• Helping you meet the many reporting deadlines

• Taking full advantage of tax opportunities and reliefs

• Reducing tax on disposals

Personal Tax

We can save you time, worry and money by completing your self assessment return for you.  We will do all the necessary calculations, complete your return, and advise you on how to minimise your tax liability.

Capital Gains Tax

As the tax system becomes increasingly complex, the disposal of capital assets such as shares or land and buildings is fraught with potential tax problems.  We can draw on years of experience to advise you on the best tax strategies. 

Inheritance Tax

Planning well in advance is essential to ensure that your estate passes on to your chosen beneficiaries in a way that minimises the inheritance tax exposure.

 We offer a discreet inheritance planning service which includes:

• Help with drawing up and reviewing your will

• Making full use of exemptions and lower tax rates on lifetime transfers

• Optimising lifetime transfers between spouses

• Transferring agricultural or business property

• Transferring assets into a trust

Value Added Tax

Value added tax is one of the most complex and onerous tax regimes imposed on business, and the costs of getting it wrong are considerable.  We can help with:

• Assistance with VAT registration

• Advice on VAT planning and administration

• Planning to minimise future problems with HM Revenue & Customs

Revenue & Customs Enquiries

HM Revenue & Customs do not need to give any reason for making a full enquiry into your affairs.  In fact many enquiries are selected completely at random without any additional tax or VAT being due.

We can represent you throughout an enquiry, dealing directly with the tax authorities on your behalf.

We offer a free protection insurance policy which covers our fees in connection with these enquiries.
