Accountants, auditors and insolvency practitioners

Our experience

We have extensive experience in acting for a wide range of practices, from top 10 and regional firms to sole practitioners. We handle negligence claims arising from a range of accountants’ services, including:

• Audit
• Negligent tax advice / tax avoidance schemes
• FRC fines and regulatory issues
• Corporate transactions
• General accountancy issues such as the late filing of or inaccurate returns
• Insolvency & Trustees
• We also defence regulatory investigations, including by both ACCA and ICAEW

Our national team is widely experienced, approachable, commercial and robust. We recognise the impact claims have on firms both reputational and financial and providing an outstanding client service is at the heart of what we do.

Being part of a full service law firm provides our lawyers and clients with an impressive array of in-house specialists, including corporate, insolvency, private wealth, probate, tax and trusts. Working together means we can promptly identify and resolve issues without external counsel. Where necessary, and especially for large pieces of litigation, we can also draw on the wider 80 strong national professional indemnity team.

Our network of carefully curated international "Best Friends" firms also enables us to advise and represent clients across virtually all jurisdictions with speed, commerciality and ease.
