Tax Investigations

A Tax investigation can be a daunting prospect. It doesn’t need to be though. We can look after all aspects of any HMRC enquiry, from liaising with the inspector, to providing the necessary information they require and appealing any inappropriate decisions made, if applicable. We are partnered with Croner Taxwise, who provide our tax investigation insurance. They are a specialist team who get involved, if need be, on any complex issues or just to provide a sounding board, if required.	As you can imagine, a tax investigation can be a lengthy process and end up costing a lot of money in unexpected accountancy fees. The tax investigation service is an annual premium, which allows for our time to be paid by the insurance company, leaving you with just a small annual payment to be made for the benefit. The annual premium depends on the type of business and how many directors there are, so please get in touch for a quote if this is of interest to you.
