Your Business Has Outgrown Generic Tax Advice

You're investing serious money in R&D - £500k, £1m+ annually. Your innovation is real. Your team is growing. Your tax situation is complex.

But your options feel limited:

  • Big 4 firms move slowly, cost a fortune, and you're dealing with junior staff
  • Local accountants don't specialise in innovation tax and miss opportunities
  • Volume R&D claims factories treat you like a £number
  • DIY claims leave money on the table and increase HMRC enquiry risk

You need strategic tax planning with a deep understanding of innovative businesses
