Services
Clear advice for complex tax matters.
Specialist tax advice and personal support for individuals, businesses and professional advisers, with a particular focus on HMRC investigations and dispute resolution.
HMRC investigations and enquiries
An HMRC enquiry can create uncertainty about what is being examined, what information you need to provide and what happens next. I help you understand the issues, review the evidence and respond to HMRC.
Support can include managing correspondence, preparing for and attending meetings, and advising on the approach to the investigation as it develops.
Tax disputes and resolution
Where you disagree with HMRC’s position, I assess the facts, technical arguments and available options. I provide support with disputed tax liabilities, assessments and penalties.
My work can include preparing representations, engaging in negotiations and assisting with alternative dispute resolution, with clear advice about the strengths, uncertainties and practical implications of your position.
Tax disclosures
If you are concerned that past tax affairs may be incorrect or incomplete, I can help you understand the position and the steps needed to address it.
This includes reviewing undeclared income, offshore matters and other historic issues, preparing disclosures and supporting you through the resulting engagement with HMRC.
Historic tax arrangements and settlements
Previous tax arrangements can leave individuals and businesses facing complex questions and unresolved HMRC enquiries. I help establish the facts, review the tax position and explain the options.
My role is to assist with resolving existing arrangements and associated liabilities, including reviewing calculations and engaging with HMRC over settlement.
Specialist tax advice
I provide focused advice on complex personal and business tax questions, including matters arising from company transactions and existing arrangements.
The work starts with understanding your circumstances and objectives, then examining the relevant facts and technical issues to provide clear, practical advice.
Support for accountants and advisers
I work alongside accountants and other professional advisers where a client needs specialist technical input or support with an HMRC enquiry or dispute.
We can agree a role that suits the matter, from advice to the existing adviser through to direct involvement with the client and HMRC, with clear responsibilities and communication.
