Our team of tax experts take the time to develop relationships, to understand your holistic business and personal objectives, and to then outline the taxation and structuring opportunities that will facilitate the overall goal of building wealth and minimising tax in a way that is transparent and easy to understand whilst ensuring that all outcomes are addressed and can stand up to ATO scrutiny.

Tax advisory is seen as an exercise of synthesising our strong technical knowledge of taxation laws and broad commercial awareness with our deep understanding of our clients affairs, circumstances and business needs to then craft a tailored solution which provides the best taxation outcomes and fits in with the short and longer term business strategic and wealth creation objectives.

Structuring is a complex affair and involves comprehensive consideration of many factors. Some of the many factors we tend to consider include:

  • Asset protection and limiting exposure to business liabilities

  • Longer-term wealth creation objectives & retirement needs
