What does tax law involve for businesses in the UK?
- Corporation Tax: Managing annual returns, calculating taxable profits, and claiming deductions or reliefs.
- Value Added Tax (VAT): Registering for VAT, filing returns, and adhering to correct rates—standard, reduced, or zero-rated.
- PAYE and payroll: Ensuring correct deductions for income tax and National Insurance contributions when paying employees.
- Capital gains: Dealing with taxes on the disposal of business assets, shares, or property.
- International taxation: Navigating double taxation treaties and transfer pricing rules when trading or operating across borders.
How can a solicitor help with business tax, and what does it cost?
A tax solicitor or specialised tax adviser can:
- Provide compliance advice: Ensuring your business meets filing deadlines and accurately reports financial data to HMRC.
- Assist with tax planning: Identifying lawful strategies to reduce tax liabilities, such as reliefs, allowances, or corporate restructurings.
- Handle HMRC disputes: Representing you during inspections, investigations, or appeals, and negotiating settlements if needed.
- Advise on transactions: Helping structure mergers, acquisitions, or share buybacks to minimise unnecessary tax costs.
Costs vary depending on the complexity of your business affairs and the solicitor’s expertise. Hourly rates can range from £200 to £500, particularly for senior tax specialists. Some firms may offer fixed-fee services for routine compliance or smaller projects. An initial consultation—often free or discounted—lets you explore your options, estimate fees, and plan a robust tax strategy for your company.
