Select Paul A. Hill & Co. Accountants, and you’ll receive our “Active” service. Our clients from Cambridge to Peterborough, including Huntingon, Chatteris and Ely rely on us to minimise their tax, to tell them if new legislation effects them, for business advice, and what documents should be filed by when. In essence, we deliver better value.
Our clients range from self-employed tradesmen, wealthy individuals and sole traders, to high-tech start-ups, owner-managed companies and long-established family-run businesses. In addition, many charities, clubs and associations use our services. Generally our client’s turnover ranges from an average salary to around £10 million a year.
Reduce your tax
Our tax advice is cost-effective – you save vastly more than it costs. We know the simple and complex actions that will reduce your tax bill, and advise you what is appropriate. Our expertise covers income, corporate, VAT, and inheritance tax.
We research the more aggressive tax wheezes developed by specialist firms. However, many wheezes can be “risky”, as these days HMRC is clamping down on tax avoidance. Since we know your circumstances, we’ll describe what risks you face and your potential benefits, enabling you to make a fully-informed business decision.
Stay on top of new legislation
As “active” accountants, we’ll inform you whenever a new piece of legislation emerges that directly effects your business or personal circumstances. We know you are too busy to read mountains of bumpf, so we’ll inform you about specific pieces of legislation, rather than everything. What’s more, we know HMRC’s thinking and plans, as we advise HMRC how their latest small business and personal tax inititives will work in practice.
Note, we are one of the relatively few small practices that research and write our own newsletters. These newsletters provide a generic overview of changes in legislation. Many competitors purchase their newsletters from third parties. We prefer to study the legislation ourselves, to ensure we fully understand what might effect our clients.
Manage your reporting requirements
Everyone in our offices knows for which client, what documents should be filed by when. All of us know when your payroll, management accounts, VAT returns, corporation tax, personal tax, and Companies House returns are due. Actually, this is how we schedule our work. So, well in advance, we’ll advise you of what needs to be done by when, what information we’d like, and who we should work with. You can then plan and delegate as appropriate, and focus on your customers.
Business Advice
Altogether we have over a hundred years of business experience, gained from working with similar companies. We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. Many clients appreciate that when we’ve completed your accounts and tax returns, we often suggest what actions might improve their profits.
