Tax Protection Services

Because of the increasing likelihood of HM Revenue & Customs, VAT or DSS investigations, we run a scheme which covers, for a modest annual charge, the accountancy costs which can arise in such situations.  This is available for individual, business or corporate structures.  It is an essential piece of insurance in today’s world.

Other vital areas where Milton Avis LLP can contribute to your overall business success include valuing the financial performance and standing of other companies in case of commercial dispute, litigation support, reports on other individuals’ business affairs and detailed personal and corporate tax investigations.  Our services are always confidential, efficient and professional, benefiting from our substantial experience and skilled judgement in a broad range of specialist areas.

Starting Up in the United Kingdom

• Assisting foreign clients in establishing their presence in the UK
• Advising on local business customs and conditions
• Selecting and forming the appropriate business structure (company, partnership, branch etc.)
• Introduction to bankers and other professionals
• Preparing a business plan

Overseas clients are offered highly specialised taxation advice which seeks to minimise their exposure to all aspects of UK taxation.  With appropriate advice the UK is virtually a tax haven for non-domiciled individuals and we help clients to take full advantage of the opportunities that are available.

Opportunities to minimise or eliminate tax liabilities are taken wherever possible.  This can involve anything from claiming correct income tax reliefs to arranging an offshore company.  Clients’ tax affairs are reviewed in the light of any new legislation to take advantage of developments.

We will take the initiative to save all forms of tax (income tax, VAT, corporation tax, national insurance, etc.) for businesses and individuals.  Our available expertise extends to outside consultants where specialist knowledge is beneficial.
