Expert advice regarding IR35 cases
These are often matters of general employment law, and not specific tax legislation. There is an enormous amount of case law in this area and the tax man is not always right. They do not have the final say on whether somebody is caught by IR35 or not. We can argue your case for you.
If you make a mistake, the cost of employee's and employer's national insurance can be considerable, especially when you factor in interest and penalties.
We can review your existing arrangements and give you our opinion on whether it will stand up to attack from HMRC. We can help draft contracts for services to assist you and advise on how you can ensure your position is as strong as possible.
