My portfolio consists of a variety of largely corporate clients including start-ups, owner-managed businesses, international companies and groups and publicly listed companies. For many of the clients, I act for the work undertaken is centred around the annual year-end process with regular meetings throughout the year which provides the opportunity to give a wide range of business and tax related advice.
