Investigations and Enquiries
HM Revenue & Customs have considerable power to investigate the tax affairs of both individuals and companies. It is most important that such matters are handled carefully and by experienced practitioners in order to minimise the impact of such an enquiry – if, during the course of an investigation or enquiry, it is found that you owe additional tax, penalties may be charged. Nunn Hayward has considerable experience in dealing with these matters and is there to guide you through the process, correspond with HM Revenue & Customs on your behalf and draw the matter to a conclusion with the best achievable outcome for you.
