Tax Consultancy

Having a dedicated tax consultancy team at Campbell Dallas is what sets us apart from the average accountancy firm.

In the majority of firms tax is dealt with as a whole, but because of the time consuming nature of both tax compliance and consultancy we recognise that the work had to be split and dealt with by separate specialised teams of people.

With several uniquely skilled individuals the tax consultancy team delivers bespoke tax planning solutions. With the ever increasing pressure on cash flow, particularly in the current economic climate, the ability to save or defer tax through the use of planning is assuming a much higher profile. Our team not only consists of qualified accountants and qualified tax advisers but we have people with legal training and also former HMRC inspectors.

Why Campbell Dallas?

Tax is a complex and involved subject. Frequently there can be inter-relation between several taxes at once and so it is vital that we fully understand the proposed transactions before any planning can begin, that way we do not end up with a situation where we avoid one tax simply to be caught by another.

Our dedicated tax consultancy team is people focussed and partner led and we understand the importance of developing close relationships with our clients. The mix of in-house talent has created a formidable team. We work closely with other colleagues within the firm, clients and their legal and financial advisors to deliver real value. If we are retained to implement bespoke tax planning and do not otherwise act for the client we will work closely with their existing accountant.

All our advice is given in plain English as it is vital that our clients understand how the planning works inside and out. HM Revenue and Customs has publicly stated that most planning fails because people take shortcuts. We will supply a full report of the planning as well as a Disclosure Report to ensure that everyone in the loop knows what has to be done. This is especially important when, as sometimes happens, another firm of advisers is involved to ensure that no unintentional slip ups occur.

Areas of Planning Specialisms

  • Onshore and offshore planning
  • Strategic planning and corporate restructuring
  • Personal Wealth Planning, including Inheritance tax
  • Stamp Duty Land Tax
  • Tax Investigations including COP 9 and HMRC enquiries

We deliver tax planning solutions involving individuals, stand alone companies, corporate groups, unincorporated businesses from sole traders to large partnerships and limited liability partnerships.

Often the planning will use trusts both onshore and offshore and any of the above vehicles in various combinations innovatively put together to achieve the end result.

Whether you are looking purely for a compliance focussed service or a unique planning strategy, our systems and services are flexible and we can tailor our offering to meet your requirements.
