Tax Advice & Tax Compliance
James Lee Associates
Expert assistance with Tax Investigations & HMRC enquiries
Professional advice is crucial to relieve the stress & burden of a tax enquiry and to present your case in the best possible light.
A tax investigation or enquiry from HMRC is a serious issue that should be treated sensitively and sensibly. It is prudent to seek a professional opinion promptly if you have received any such correspondence suggesting an enquiry or investigation from H.M. Revenue & Customs.
The first step is a meeting with one of our advisers in order to gather the facts of the situation. You need to understand your rights and responsibilities as a tax payer as well as the implications of your actions and communication with HRMC. The penalty system HMRC imposes on 'Potential Lost Revenue' can be as much as 100% for deliberate and concealed unprompted disclosures.
It is our priority to minimise any possible penalty liabilities levied from HMRC and ensure all allowances and reliefs to which you were entitled have been claimed. Furthermore we look to resolve any tax enquiries or investigations as promptly as possible in order for the process to be as stress free as possible.
