Founder Michael Filiou takes great pride in developing strong professional relationships built on trust, honesty and integrity. He, alongside his experienced tax and accounting team, plays a pivotal role in helping businesses and individuals navigate the UK tax system, helping their clients reduce their tax liabilities wherever possible.
 
Tailored tax advice
The team’s approach is to fully understand their clients' circumstances and how this affects them, their families, or their businesses. Once they know the whole picture, they provide proactive, tailored advice to save their clients’ money and help protect their wealth for future generations. All areas of tax are covered, including personal, business, inheritance and capital taxes. The practice’s superior working knowledge of UK tax ensures that a holistic approach is taken to reviewing client tax affairs and identifying tax efficient solutions which maximise relevant tax reliefs and allowances to help clients.
 
Protecting the future
Inheritance tax planning is of significant importance in the UK. Michael and his team work tirelessly to help their clients preserve their wealth and identify effective ways of passing this over to future generations. Each person’s situation and objectives are reviewed, and a practical approach is taken to implementing simple yet highly effective methods for reducing current and future tax liabilities. These methods could include setting up trusts, gifting assets or making regular payments into savings accounts for grandchildren. Each person’s circumstances differ, so for the team at Michael Filiou, it is important to understand the client’s current position and what they are trying to achieve. Having suggested suitable tax planning strategies, the team will then implement them, ensuring they communicate with clients at every step, answering questions and supporting them along the way.
 
Tax and accounting compliance
In addition to helping clients solve their tax problems, Michael and his team can assist clients with routine tax and accounting matters. This includes preparing year-end accounts and calculating and submitting tax returns for individuals, partnerships, trusts, and limited companies. The practice liaises with HMRC, Companies House, and other agencies to ensure client information is completed and filed accurately and by the appropriate deadlines. They are also experienced in helping people through stressful HMRC tax investigations by handling all communications with HMRC and working to secure a favourable resolution. While the practice invests in the latest tax, accounting and IT systems to ensure that clients' needs are met, the heart of everything it does is connecting with and helping people. Michael and his team are driven by the desire to make people’s lives easier when it comes to their tax, accounting and financial matters.
