Tax compliance and planning for professional services
Tax should not direct a professional practice but it does affect cash flow, whether you trade as a Partnership, an LLP or a company.
We complete the partnership or company tax return and also provide a full tax compliance service to the “partners” as well as helping with forecasting tax liabilities and providing planning advice.
Client money examinations
Many professional practices hold client money and require an examination to be forwarded to the regulators who include:
- SRA

As well as completing the Accountant’s Reports; we assist practices with their robust systems to improve efficiency, assist the COFA and comply with the Rules. We provide training to practices’ fee earners on the latest SRA Handbook, issued October 2014, and liaise with COFA’s on the future of reporting.
