The Limited Company Package (Contractors / Freelancers / Consultants)

Our package is tailored towards Contractors / Freelancers or Consultants who trade through a limited company and whose main priority is minimising their Tax and National insurance liabilities to the fullest extent of the current law.

This is a comprehensive 'All in one' package including all of the necessary services to ensure that the accountancy & tax compliance duties are satisfied to a high professional standard.

This service package will suit the requirements of:

  • Consultants
  • IT professionals
  • Trainers
  • Project managers
  • Medical professionals
  • Architects
  • Engineers
  • HGV Drivers
  • Other professionals supplying services through a Limited company.

As a tax specialist firm with 'Chartered' status, we have the authority to advise you in structuring your affairs in the most tax efficient way throughout the life cycle of the company. Clients can expect to receive an outstanding and fully personalised service with expert tax focused advice. 

 

We have an exceptional reputation in IR35 compliance and defence strategies proven by the fact that none of our 100's clients over the past 5 years have ever had to change their status to falling inside of the IR35 rules by HMRC (upto January 2012).

 

We can also individually cater for professionals who may seek to develop other business trades outside of their normal contracting income.

 

"..I wish I has gone with your company years ago. Your service is excellent. I recommend you to every contractor I know!.."  (Unsolicited and verifiable written client quote) (Click here to view)

 


Established companies can benefit from:

  • Profit extraction tax strategies based wholly on individual short, medium and long term circumstances resulting in clients retaining upto 100% of the gross contract income.

  • A truly personalised service.

  • Communicate with a dedicated expert (not a helpdesk or account manager) who will understand and recall your affairs.

  • No administrative staff to oversee professional work or liaise with clients on technical matters. You will not receive an 'automated' service or 'standardised' advice.

  • Tax advice from qualified tax experts. As a firm of Chartered Tax Advisers, we can provide high calibre tax advice on all issues contractor related and non contractor related.

  • IR35 expert advice and defence representation.

  • A critical review of the company's tax affairs. We calculate more than two thirds of clients who have appointed us from another firm (inc all of the main contractor specialist firms) improved on their overall tax & NIC position following a review we conduct into the calculations / submissions / advice supplied by the outgoing accountant. A repayment can be obtained from HMRC where a claim is not time barred.

  • No data entry obligations. If you are unable to use our software, spreadsheet, or online system, you can forward us your raw records and we will handle the data entry on your behalf when you find yourself busy or unable to prepare the records yourself.

New companies or those making the change from Employment / MSC / Umbrella schemes can also benefit from:

  • A helping hand to ensure a smooth transition. We will help you with the inevitable questions and concerns you will have.

  • Specialised tax advice from day one. We will advise you on structuring your affairs efficiently from the outset.

  • Full recordkeeping advice to suit your ability and needs.

  • Professional integrity. We do not employ any marketing techniques or offer any commission based services. Many firms can prey on the inexperience of new contractors. Examples include: a) supplying projections of net income based on only three questions and a standard template with no consideration of individual circumstances or historic / future implications. b) Offering a specific company bank account that pays virtually no interest to the client but pays the accountant a secret percentage in commission based of the running balance of the account (we declined this exact deal with one of the UK's largest banking organisations in sync with our firms no commissions ethos). c) Cross marketing of insurance or financial investment products which are leveraged towards high commission rates for the accountant. This results in advice being supplied solely for the purpose of encouraging these products without consideration of the client's best long term interests.
