Taxation Services
As tax advisers, our objective is to work closely with you to ensure you pay the minimum tax required by law. Our advice will help you to understand the tax implications of your actions, in order that you can plan ahead and conduct your affairs in a tax efficient way. The advice we provide will help you understand the tax implications of your business decisions so you can plan and conduct your business affairs in a tax efficient manner.
Corporation Tax Services
Under Corporation Tax Self-Assessment (CTSA), the legal responsibility for correctly calculating the corporation tax liability falls on business owners. We understand the issues facing owner-managed businesses and can prepare tax returns in a timely and efficient manner. We will also calculate your company’s tax liability and assist with the calculation of any quarterly instalment payments due.
The increased reporting obligations, investigation policies on the part of the tax authorities and harsher penalties for non-compliance mean that your time and resources can be taken up with tax administration. We will help to minimise corporate tax exposure and relieve the administrative burden of compliance with current tax legislation. Effective corporate tax planning can also result in significant improvements in your bottom line.
Personal Self-Assessment
We can save you time, stress and money by handling your Self Assessment tax return for you. We will do all the necessary computations, prepare and submit your Return and offer advice on how you can minimise your tax liability.
We can act as your Tax Agent, dealing directly with the HM Revenue & Customs on your behalf and, should you be selected for a self-assessment enquiry, act for you at any meetings.
Personal tax planning
Everyone who is subject to taxation needs professional advice and support if they are to optimise their tax position and ensure they meet the compliance requirements. Our specialist tax team can provide you with year-round advice on all aspects of personal taxation.
Estate planning
Few of us like to think about dying; however, the relevant legislation requires us to plan well in advance. This means making the necessary provisions now and the earlier arrangements are made, the greater the chance of taking full advantage the many tax opportunities available within our complicated tax system.
When planning to transfer an estate it’s important to make adequate provision and getting the right balance requires considerable skill and foresight – along with detailed knowledge of the current tax regime. We provide a discreet comprehensive estate planning service that includes:
- help with planning and reviewing a will
- making full use of exemptions and lower tax rates on lifetime transfers
- optimising lifetime transfers between family members
- transferring agricultural or business property
- transferring assets into trust
- arranging adequate life assurance to cover potential inheritance tax liabilities.
VAT
Ever changing regulations and the growing demands of HMRC mean VAT compliance can be a difficult administrative process. We can ensure that you comply with the regulations and don’t make overpayments. To help you manage this complex area, we provide an efficient, cost-effective VAT service, which includes:
- assistance with VAT registration
- advice on VAT planning and administration
- use of the most appropriate scheme
- VAT control and reconciliation
