G H Herbert and Co

Consultancy and contract work

Nowadays many people, particularly in certain industries such as construction or I.T. find that they need to be able to work through a limited company: which also has the benefit of separating one's business affairs from those matters which are private. We will assist with the formation, bookkeeping and accounting and taxation affairs of such businesses.

Corporation tax, Income tax, N.I., higher rate tax and dividends.

There can also be tax advantages. Several taxes affect a limited company, and the way the individuals involved are rewarded can have a considerable effect upon how much tax has to be paid. The circumstances of each case vary, so that there is no standard strategy which is suitable for all situations. At G H Herbert and Co we will consider your own situation carefully before advising you as to the best way to proceed.

We do all we can to legally minimise the amount of tax - in all its forms - which you have to pay, and prepare such computations and returns as are necessary.
