Our Services

Consultlord builds a personal relationship with clients, providing a friendly and cost-effective service at a time and location to suit them. While based in the North East, we undertake work from further afield.

Tax Enquiry Work

Consultlord provides a professional, non-judgemental and confidential service, particularly with investigations. Whether working directly with the client or in conjunction with an existing advisor, such as an accountant, we:-

Rigorously defend the client within the scope and limits of the law.
Take charge of the enquiry, freeing the client to concentrate on their business.
Cut through the red-tape and jargon to explain the issue in a clear and understandable manner.
Ensure that the issue is worked promptly towards a fair and cost effective conclusion.
Provide representation at any meetings with Inspectors or Tribunal hearing.
Help to reach an amicable settlement and pay only what is reasonably proven to be due.

Apart from dealing with enquiries into contended understatement of business profits, we also deal with disputes in respect of specialist technical issues, such as disagreements about particular deductions.
