In recent years HMRC has been using various methods to increase the volume of enquiries and investigations launched into clients’ tax affairs. This has very often been into businesses and private individuals that have apparently clean tax returns and seemingly no real reason to be investigated.
The result of these unwarranted intrusions is very often either marginal or nil additional tax being due. However, answering and defending these HMRC enquiries takes time, effort and specific expertise. The resulting fees incurred in dealing with such matters ends up being an additional unwanted cost, which can easily escalate to thousands of pounds.
In view of the above, and in response to numerous client requests, we have partnered with Croner-i Fee Protect to provide a Tax Fee Protection service. We recommend that you consider taking protection against the additional fees that will arise in the event of a tax enquiry or dispute as these are not included with your current fees.
Clients who join are also able to obtain unlimited helpful advice about the complex areas of Health & Safety, Employment Law and Business Legal support, via Croner-i Fee Protect.
By joining, you will have peace of mind that Edwards & Keeping can defend your position and ensure HMRC is not being unreasonable should your affairs come under scrutiny. Our costs will be covered as part of the service.
To find out more please contact your usual Edwards & Keeping partner to discuss the importance of Tax Fee Protection.
