The excellent specialist contractor accountant we recommend took considerable effort to find.
Unfortunately many accountancy firms who offer services to contractors let their clients
down badly. A typical High Street accountant will often provide only a partial service,
have no specialist knowledge ot the areas affecting IT contractors, and to add insult to
injury charge more than a specialist.
Our accountant offers a comprehensive service and very low fee guaranteed for two years
from acceptance - few others offer any guarantee on fees.
We know from past personal experience the pitfalls of choosing the wrong accountant,
we can recommend our accountants with confidence because we use them ourselves.

Our accountant can help you get started with a number of services that are included with their package....

Are you an existing contractor/consultant who is not totally satisfied with your accountant ?....
- Are you being charged too much ?
- Are you spending too much of your time doing their job or supporting their software ?
- Are they doing enough for you - many accountants don't do VAT or payroll - I know it's easy but it's not your job ?
- Are they slow with returns, creating problems with deadlines and possible fines ?
- Are they difficult to communicate with ?
