I act for a diverse client base which includes individuals, Sole Traders, Partnerships and Limited Companies.

They cover a broad spectrum of industries from the Building and Construction Industry through the Agricultural Sector to Shops and Service Industries. I also act for a number of individuals and companies active in the North Sea Oil Extraction industry.

I am a Sole Practitioner with over 20 years experience in taxation and accountancy. I qualified as a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants in 1992 and hold practising certificates from both the ACCA and the Association of Taxation Technicians. The majority of my clients are based in the North East of Scotland, although I do have a number of clients in England and others who regularly work overseas.

I have an office in Arbroath at 5 Dishlandtown Street, Arbroath, DD11 1QX.

I also see clients at my home office at 71 Durham Street, Monifieth, DD5 4PD. I’m also happy to visit clients at their home or place of business if it is more convenient.

I usually agree a fixed fee in advance. Although the actual fee varies depending on how much work is required, typical examples are:

£300 – non-Vat registered Sole Trader, this includes preparing accounts from your records and completing and filing your tax return.

£700 – small Limited Company with a turnover under £100,000. This to include preparing full and abbreviated accounts, corporation tax return, directors’ tax returns and also any tax planning advice.
