• Civil Investigation of Fraud (CIF) tax and VAT enquires
• Voluntary disclosures
• High Net Worth Unit/ Expatriate Team enquiries, including those related to residence/domicile or cross border and offshore issues
• Tax risk management for large corporates
• HMRC formal information powers (eg Taxes Management Act 1970 Section 20 notices)
• Defence of tax mitigation and avoidance schemes
• Prosecution defence including experienced expert witness
• PAYE/NIC, employment status and construction industry related matters
• 'Time to pay' arrangements with HMRC Debt Management Units

Our experts are skilled in negotiating manageable settlements with HMRC across all taxes including, but not limited to, income tax, corporation tax, capital gains tax, VAT and inheritance tax.

Our team consists of and seeks counsel from ex-HMRC senior investigators (from local office to SI), and accountants who are supported by a team of highly qualified graduates.

HMRC current projects include close scrutiny to find undisclosed rental income from buy-to-let properties and undeclared offshore bank accounts. If you have concerns about either of these projects, please contact one of our experts.
