Are you under investigation

Being investigated by HM Revenue & Customs can be a stressful, lengthy, intrusive and ultimately a costly experience. Here at Mazars our aim is to support you and remove the stress, take control of the investigative process, minimise intrusion into your private life and aim to get the best conclusion possible for you out of the process.

Our National Tax Investigations Group is staffed by experienced professionals with many years of experience both as senior investigators within HM Revenue & Customs and also successfully working on behalf of clients in private practice. We have significant experience of local office investigations into both small and medium entities and large and complex entities, investigations being conducted by HM Revenue & Customs “Cross Taxes” teams addressing both direct and indirect tax, Civil Investigation of Fraud investigations, Specialist Investigations cases (under Code of Practice 8 and Code of Practice 9), Anti-avoidance Group work into perceived tax avoidance and also criminal investigations. We have an excellent record of success in all these areas.

If you are already under investigation (and it is never too late for us to help you), or have just received the dreaded initial letter from HM Revenue & Customs stating their intent to investigate you or your business, and would like to speak with one of our experienced professionals, please contact us. We would be happy to have an initial no obligation discussion with you to explore how we can help you.

We can also help you if you have issues that you feel may need to be disclosed to HM Revenue & Customs. Again, for an initial no obligation discussion please contact us.
