HMRC Tax Investigations and Enquiries – West London

We’ve managed a large number of HMRC tax investigations and enquiries. In every single case, we’ve minimised our client’s tax liabilities.

  • We employ an in-house Chartered Tax Advisor (CTA) qualified by the Chartered Institute of Taxation. (CTA is the UK’s highest tax qualification.) He provides the highest quality tax advice available.
  • We can provide fee protection insurance even if your HMRC inquiry or investigation has started.

  • Personal tax issues including:
    • Self-assessments
    • Non-disclosure

  • Corporation tax

Case Study – HMRC Fraud Inquiry

The Problems

Our new client had taken legal advice for a year, but HMRC had refused to close a COP9 fraud inquiry until all their corporate tax affairs were also resolved. The client also wanted to recover a key asset.

They also had minimal records.

How We Helped

We updated the client’s corporate affairs for the entire group (around 20 companies for around five years).

We negotiated with HMRC to minimise the tax liability, taking a different approach from the client’s lawyers.

The Result

We reduced our new client’s tax liabilities by about £250k.
