Personal Tax Advice

Tax legislation changes every year as successive government budget announcements take effect.

We advise you on all the latest rules so that you can focus on running your business, safe in the knowledge that we’ve got all of your tax requirements covered.
We ensure that you get all of your tax requirements right.
Our Surrey tax specialists provide expert tax advice on:

  • Personal tax
  • Income Tax
  • Capital Gains Tax
  • Inheritance Tax
  • Trusts

Annual tax returns are becoming the norm for many but getting it wrong can be both costly and come with serious implications and fines becoming increasingly stringent.

We make sure you pay the right amount of tax possible – the lowest legal amount.

 

Business Tax Specialists

Business tax is often even more complex than personal tax, with variables such as company structure, number of employees, turnover and any personal benefits impacting how much tax your business may be liable to pay.

We don’t just produce your accounts, but we actively seek to inform you of the best structure for your business to reduce your overall tax liability.

Advising you at every step of the way.

There are almost always expenses and benefits that you can claim but probably don’t know or haven’t thought about.

We work with you to optimise your tax obligations and can also act on your behalf should you be in the position of having to meet with HMRC.

 

Property tax specialists

Property tax comes with its own quirks, but as property tax specialists we can help you navigate the best ways to minimise tax on your property portfolio. We act for both residential and commercial landlords, advising on ongoing tax implications (including ATED), VAT and stamp duty planning and undeclared rental income.

 

Advanced Tax Planning Experts

Advance tax planning can include not only personal and business tax, but also capital gains tax and inheritance tax. These areas can all be a minefield, but you don’t have to worry about understanding them, as we do, and we will explain everything you need to know in simple terms so that you can plan for your future effectively.

Making the right plans for the future can be the difference between paying the optimum amount of tax and overpaying.

Our advanced tax planning service explores in depth all avenues and opportunities available under current legislation and we offer advice on the tax implications of a diverse range of issues from individuals to large companies.

 

Tax Investigations 

HMRC actively seek businesses and individuals who have underpaid tax, in order to maximise their tax collection.

HMRC can turn the spotlight on your tax affairs at any time.

With greater powers than ever, HMRC can open aspect enquiries and compliance checks that may leave you vulnerable, even when you believe you have done everything right.

It’s vital that you involve your accountant from the outset to avoid paying more tax than necessary.

HMRC enquiries are also time-consuming and the professional fees involved can be considerable. Our Tax Protection scheme protects you against such costs by covering the professional fees whatever the nature of HMRC’s investigation. If you are a business client, this service will give you access to a Business Support Helpline. This is an invaluable source of guidance on a wide range of business-related law.

 

What our clients say…

You always make me feel like I am your only client. That’s a gift. The art of real care.

Having struggled with a Tax issue within a Trust and taking advice from a number of sources that was patently wrong we consulted Chantal who was able to give a DEFINITIVE answer within a short period of seeing the papers. She then produced a basic calculation of our liability, a strategy for mitigation and a competitive fee quote to complete the work. My fellow trustee and I were thoroughly impressed and obviously now know where to go for a skilled tax practitioner.

We are convinced after the meetings we had with other accountants, that working with you has the chance to be the one we are counting on and it will be long-term.
That is why we want to work with you.
