Tax Planning

Tax Planning Services

Our experienced tax planning team can provide pro-active advice whether planning for your future or a particular event. Using our depth of knowledge across a range of taxes, our advice is given in a straightforward manner, always with the client’s needs and wants at the forefront of our minds.

There are a wide range of reliefs and provisions available that can be utilised to reduce tax liabilities now and in the future. We find the key to the majority of tax planning is timing, whether this is with regards to personal IHT planning or corporate restructuring, the earlier tax planning is considered the better.

Succession Planning

Regardless of your business industry, size or circumstances, our team of business experts can provide you with the best advice when you are looking to move onto new opportunities in the form of succession planning. Whether you are a family-owned business or part of a more corporate structure, our team will consider the main tax implications when planning for the future.

Family Tax Planning

For those who own a business, property, or many assets, failing to plan ahead could result in your offspring having to pay a large tax bill in the future. With our family tax planning, we take every family member’s tax position into account and suggest the most efficient way to mitigate tax liability.

Research & Development

Research & development tax credits are no longer limited to the scientific industry. There are many businesses that are already undertaking industry-leading R&D without being aware of the tax benefits. Our expert team can help to identify R&D tax credit opportunities, work with you to gather sufficient evidence and submit a claim to HMRC on your behalf.

Corporate Finance

There are several types of corporate finance, each with its own tax implications. Our experienced team can help to identify the best route forward for your business to be in line with any overarching strategy or plan.

Tax Investigation

As a practice, we are concerned about the increasing threat of tax investigations and invite you to subscribe to our Tax Investigations Service. Most insurance companies are reporting significant increases in the number and complexity of enquiries being opened and in addition, Inspectors now have increased investigative powers which could result in longer and more difficult enquiries.
