TAX STRATEGY AND PLANNING

Tax in all its forms can readily soak up more than half of the revenue generated by a small business.

Whether you are a business entrepreneur, a property investor, or you just want to look after the kids, we’ll help structure your business and personal affairs in a tax efficient way to make it an opportunity

TAX INVESTIGATIONS & DISPUTES / FEE PROTECTION

INSURANCE

You don’t need to evade tax, avoid tax, or even make a mistake to find yourself with a tax investigation. Clients are increasingly at risk of a tax investigation by HMRC as they seek to increase tax revenues. Whilst keeping good records and submitting returns on time can reduce the likelihood of this there is always a risk of being investigated purely at random. Counters offers its clients fee protection insurance to meet our costs of representing you in the event of an inquiry. And whilst we can't insure a pre-existing investigation or dispute we can still offer you assistance to sort it out!

VAT, PAYE, & CIS

Counters provide assistance and advice on VAT scheme selection, VAT returns, monthly payroll, RTI submissions, PAYE compliance, CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) returns.

PROPERTY TAX

Running a lettings business? Buying or selling a second home, or

use for your business? These are all areas where we have helped

clients make the right decisions.
