Case Study – HMRC Fraud Inquiry
The Problems
Our new client had taken legal advice for a year, but HMRC refused to close a COP9 fraud inquiry until all their corporate tax affairs were resolved. The client also wanted to recover a key asset.
They also had minimal records.
How We Helped
We updated the client’s corporate affairs for the entire group (around 20 companies for around five years).
We negotiated with HMRC to minimise the tax liability by taking a different approach from the client’s lawyers.
The Result
We reduced our new client’s tax liabilities by about £250k.
