Our Tax Law Services

We specialise in providing three core tax legal services relating to Australian tax law.

Tax Advice
Personal and Business

Clear, strategic tax advice for individuals, businesses, accountants and lawyers. From structuring and complex tax advice to answering “What can I claim?”, “What small business CGT concessions can I get?” or “How can I reduce my tax risk and exposure?” We help protect your financial future while keeping you on the right side of the tax laws.

Tax Disputes — Audits, Objections, Litigation

If you’re facing a tax audit, penalty, or dispute with the ATO or State Revenue Office, we act quickly and decisively. We handle audits, objections, and negotiations, and provide you with legal representation in tribunals and court so you don’t face the system alone.

Tax Agent Regulatory Matters

For registered tax agents under investigation or facing disciplinary action by the Tax Practitioners Board, your career and livelihood are at stake. We work to protect your registration, your reputation, and your ability to serve clients.
