Information about IR35 – this area of law now applies in both the public and the private sector. If you would like help in better understanding this area of law, as well as guidance on how to comply with IR35 related obligations, please get in contact with us and let us know.
Assessing the employment status of those who work for and with you – it is critical for tax purposes to ensure that you have assessed the status of those who work with you correctly and failure to do so could leave your business liable for future payments to HMRC. We have extensive experience in assessing employment status and the process of approaching those who work with you to discuss this.
Drafting templates – we can draft documents such as contracts which contain provisions regarding employment status and tax obligations, together with indemnities to protect the company in the event of a dispute.
Save time and money
Reduce time spent on trying to research the changes relating to IR35 and how they might apply to your business. One of our employment solicitors would be happy to discuss your specific circumstances and can advise you on any relevant IR35 provisions and how to deal with these, whilst you continue to focus your time and energy on running your business.
Reduced risk of non-compliance
Instructing Harper James Solicitors will provide you with peace of mind in knowing that you are in safe hands with solicitors who will advise you of IR35 requirements and how best to comply with them.
Audit your existing intermediary arrangements
We can carefully review and analyse the risks related to your current intermediary arrangements and, where appropriate, advise you on alternative arrangements and strategies for resourcing your business.
