Advisory Engagements

With the UK claiming the largest tax code in the world, we understand how important it is for both individuals and corporates to receive bespoke tax advice to ensure mitigation and compliance.

HMRC Enforcement and Compliance, acting under the mantra ‘fairness for everyone’ continue their targeted measures of clamping down on deemed tax evasion, tax avoidance and non-compliance.

Through its ever expanding team of compliance officers, HMRC aim to reduced a perceived ‘tax gap’ and recover an additional c.£5bn each year.

We have tax advisers in London, Essex and Manchester, who are able to provide bespoke advice and compliance services. We can offer either as a standalone Advisory engagement or advice as part of our monthly fixed fee engagements to ensure you are not in breach of the rules, whilst taking advantage of all reliefs and allowances legally available to you.

Income Tax & Self Assessment

We provide tax advice and compliance services for individuals required to report under the Self Assessment regime.

Our tax advisers will determine options for mitigation and will ensure you only pay tax which is legally due.

Tax planning is not something that can be achieved retrospectively. to get the best results it is essential you contact us as soon as possible to discuss your requirements.

 

Capital Gains Tax

With CGT rates as low as 10%, capital gains can be an advantageous area for planning and mitigation.

 

CGT is an area of tax frequently fettered by government and with a landscape of changing tax rules and hurdles, client confusion is plentiful. The implications of getting a CGT declaration wrong can be a costly mistake.

We provide tax advice and planning around capital gains under a specific advisory or recurring monthly engagement. In certain scenarios, we can obtain pre statutory approval guaranteeing the tax position of a transaction prior to execution, this removes uncertainty in an area where the numbers are often significant.

Through our network of Insolvency Practitioner partnerships we provide a one stop shop for corporate liquidations giving company directors access to Entrepreneurs Relief or Business Asset Disposal Relief as it is now called, providing a 10% tax rate on the release of accumulated company reserves.
