Income Tax

Individual taxpayers are exposed to numerous complex tax issues especially when their situation involves investing in properties, businesses or using any of the varied investment strategies.
Income tax compliance is fundamental to our work as it often plays a large part in the tax planning. Using our expertise and the latest software, we will ensure that tax returns are completed accurately and, in a time, efficient manner within the deadline.


Capital Gains Tax

Capital Gains Tax liabilities can arise when an individual disposes of an asset (either by sale or gift) which has increased in value since it was acquired. This could include residential and commercial properties, shares and investments or personal assets.

We can help by calculating and reporting the gain, alongside providing advice on mitigating, or delaying the liability as much as possible using the available tax reliefs and deferral methods. We will also help to plan the most tax efficient way to dispose of an asset in the future.


Inheritance Tax (IHT) and Trusts

Inheritance Tax planning is often a taboo subject as many people prefer not to talk about their own death. IHT planning is so important because it is about making sure you can enjoy your life now with enough money to live on, while passing on your assets in the most tax efficient way, either during your lifetime or after.

We can provide a complete review of your current estate to give you an estimate of your IHT exposure under your current will. We will advise you of what you can do to minimise your exposure to IHT, ensuring you keep hold of necessary income and assets to keep you in the life you are currently accustomed to. We can work with current advisors to put in place any actions you would like to undertake, this may include the use of Trusts and updating your will.

Planning at the right time will mean that your money ends up with those you want it to and for the specific reasons you choose.
