HM Revenue & Customs
Customs investigations focus on two major areas: the importation of contraband or prohibited materials and VAT, tax and other fraud irregularity, both coupled with the threat of proceedings for confiscation or forfeiture. The joint authority is now geared to ensuring more effective prosecutions.
The firm specialises in the protection of its clients’ interests in the face of the exceptional powers of investigation and prosecution which HM Revenue and Customs possess and we work very closely with leading accountancy practices to secure negotiated financial settlements as an alternative to prosecution.
There are executives within the department who are former members of the Fraud Squad and as such can support investigations with experienced background knowledge.
Newsflash!
HM Revenue & Customs are giving a second amnesty for disclosure of offshore accounts and paying tax due. Cooperation is vital otherwise substantial penalties and criminal investigation can follow. Need advice? Contact us now
