This was my first experience with an accountant as had not had my own business before. Therefore always paid taxes through my employer. I’d attempted to try and self assess and with very no experience in sorting my own taxes, had got into a bit of a … More state. I’d left the financial side of things (HMRC) to one side and was mainly focusing on keeping the business of my HMO running as smoothly as possible, especially during the pandemic. The thought of facing my taxes was like a black cloud constantly over my head, keeping me awake at night.Graham was very reassuring from the moment he called and explained the service they provided.There was no pressure to accept their offer to help and the process of what I’d need to do was explained in layman’s terms to me. He explained what I’d need to prepare and produce for HMRC and gave advice on things I may need to think about in terms of moving forward in the future. I remember him calmly telling me not to panic, which was a huge relief .Graham always responded promptly to my questions and queries and didn’t make me feel stupid, which is how I felt before going to an account.Graham clearly has a great wealth of knowledge and experience in his job role.Now that my taxes have gone in and been paid I feel relieved that I’ve done everything right with the advice given and feel confident that I won’t experience any repercussions from HMRC.I feel in a much stronger position than I did a few months ago in regards to taxes, the law and my own responsibilities. I hope this will only improve in the incoming years.Thank you. -
