Specialist Services

Practice & Advisor Support

Independent Tax provides unrivalled support for professional practices whose clients are faced with unwanted or unwarranted intrusion, dispute or contention with HM Revenue & Customs.  Additionally, our advisory tax professionals assist practices and their clients with transactional VAT advice and support, or those practices who also wish to consider strategic tax planning or advice for their clients.

Our experience shows that clients appreciate specialist support with tax issues, and we can help you and your practice to add real tangible value with your clients.

HMRC matters

We know that detailed or aggressive HMRC investigations or disputes can cause your practice a great deal of disruption. It can distract you from the important work of managing your clients and delivering effective service and solutions for them.

We can help ease the burden by working alongside you to help manage the process, or we can deal with the investigation or dispute in its entirety. For further information, please look at our Tax Investigation support page.

Tax planning

Your clients will often ask you questions about how their tax situation can be improved. You might have in house tax personnel but they might not be able to provide complete answers, either because they don’t have the time or their expertise is more focussed on tax reporting.

You might just be looking for a second opinion, a sounding board or a stress test of what is proposed. In any of these circumstances, our tax planning professionals can assist your firm to provide the best solutions for your clients. For further comment, please go to our Tax Advisory support page.

VAT support

There is some truth in the adage that VAT stands for “very awkward tax”! Our specialist VAT consultants will offer you expert VAT advice and straightforward, no nonsense solutions to any VAT query.

With years of experience there is no VAT or indirect tax issue that we have not seen or dealt with.  So, for any VAT or indirect tax matter we will be happy to have an initial conversation and let you know just how well we can assist.

How can we help

We are problem solvers. If you tell us about a current situation and what are the aims for the future, we should be able to give you our recommendations. They will be bespoke solutions and not pre-prepared tax avoidance schemes. The solutions will be based on or experience which includes remembering what tax advice was all about before schemes became prevalent.

We operate nationally, or internationally, and are not tied to our desks. We believe in giving a no nonsense level of support with affordable fees and costs. Our pricing structure is affordable, and we will fix fees for our engagements avoiding the traditional open-ended, “on the clock” approach of larger firms and our competitors.

To discuss this with us on a non-judgemental, discrete and no-cost basis call our helpline 0800 001 6686 or contact us today.
