Accountants in London

From basic compliance-related accounting services like annual accounts and bookkeeping to the more forward-looking services like business plans, financial forecasting, or management accounts, we help businesses at every stage of their journey.  If you’re thinking about buying a business or selling a business, we handle the whole process, from business valuations through to completion. And, if things get tough, we can offer a business rescue to help you turn things around. With our unique brand of online accounting, we help clients get to grips with their numbers and achieve their dreams, whether that’s growing, or simply sleeping better at night.

We offer all the tax services business owners could need, from the basics like self-assessment and VAT returns to the more complex elements like EIS and exit planning. And if you’re looking for help with capital gains tax, corporation tax, inheritance tax or maybe you’re after some advice about research and development, we can support you and your business. Just get in touch to find out exactly how we could help.

Whether you’re looking to purchase a business or sell a business, we offer expert advice to ensure the process runs smoothly. We help with commercial leases, employment contracts, and funding agreements, to support your business’s unique needs. Our due diligence service ensures all legal and financial aspects are looked at with a fine tooth comb. We also draft service and supplier agreements, along with company formations, and full company secretarial services.  Not only that, we help businesses structure share options, and manage their share structure, ensuring efficient governance. Protecting your intellectual property through trademarks, drafting clear terms and conditions, and drafting shareholders agreements, are also key parts of our service offering, ensuring your business is built on solid legal and financial foundations.

At Accounts and Legal, if you’re on a budget, our minimum fee is £125 and for that, our clients get accounts, CT600, annual payroll, confirmation statements, directors tax returns and access to Xero and Dext. 

Of course, we can also do a lot more for your business, and for some clients we offer a full outsourced finance function along with legal assistance for when they need it. Simply get in touch and we can decipher what package will work best for you. 

The most common way to save cash is through tax savings and reducing your liabilities where possible, but an accountant can also help you make financial decisions to help you save money and manage your cashflow. As we’ve worked with lots of businesses in London, we have extensive knowledge of the local area. Getting an accountant early on in your journey is a wise move that will help you have a better understanding of your numbers, stay compliant, and achieve your business goals.

Managing your finances can be complex and time-consuming, whether you’re an individual or running a business. Hiring an accountant takes some of this burden off your shoulders and allows you more time to do what you do best. From tax compliance and planning, cashflow forecasting, bookkeeping and annual reports, accountants can act as an external finance function to business owners. At Accounts and Legal, we ensure our clients have up-to-date financial records so they can see their numbers in real-time. All in all, an accountant can be an essential part of your business, helping you save tax, get a grip of your numbers and achieve your business goals. If you’re still unsure whether you need an accountant, feel free to speak to our team who will be able to help you make the decision.
