New paragraph
The first meeting is free and normally lasts 30 minutes. The meeting can be held at our office or at your own premises.
We normally operate a fixed fee for all work undertaken. So that we can provide you with a fee quote, we will need to ask a number of questions regarding your business/income sources.
We would need to write to you with our terms and conditions. These would need to be returned together with a copy of your ID, such as a passport, and a recent home utility bill.
We would then write to your existing accountant (if applicable) to request the standard handover information. Your current accountant should not charge for this service.
We would try to make sure that the move is as stress-free as possible.
Our fees are normally payable within 30 days of invoice date. Invoices are raised when each piece of work has been completed. It may be possible for you to agree a monthly standing order.
We appreciate this and if they are offering everything we are and you are totally happy with them, we would not want to upset your arrangement. However, changing accountants is easy and involves just one letter from you to them. Your existing accountant should not charge you for providing any handover information.
We cannot over emphasise the importance of strategic tax planning at an early stage, not crisis driven advice. Ideally you do tax planning before the year even starts but after that the earlier, the better.
We can sympathise with you. Changing banks involves a bit of disruption but the savings often far outweigh the time. However, changing accountants is far less problematic than changing banks and the savings can be substantially greater.
Parking is outside the front of the building, by the ticket office at the train station or side roads.
There are parking restrictions in the side roads between 1pm - 2pm.
