Testimonials
SATISFIED CLIENTS
I highly recommend Waterhouse Tax Lawyers to anyone who has an issue with the ATO. The team were all fantastic and particularly Tania Waterhouse – she is a life saver! My wife and I had what we perceived to be a huge problem with our SMSF – after speaking to Tania we engaged her to take over and communicate with the ATO on our behalf and the end result was way beyond our hopes. We can’t thank you enough Tania – you have made our year! Best wishes and eternal thanks from Tony and Alison.
Tania Waterhouse – she is a life saver!
Tania and her team have been great with their advice and handling of my legal matters with the ATO and TPB.
Thank you Tania, Bernie, Alice, Coco and the others over the journey.
The legal advice has been A++, as was expected.
What was not expected was the caring and empathetic way the services was provided through the entire process. Legal matters are very stressful, and I felt that the Waterhouse team had my back along the way.
I really appreciate that Tania still checks in on me from time to time, even after the matter has been settled.
The Waterhouse team were supportive when needed, but also there was a good dose of reality when that was needed as well.
I certainly hope I will never need their services again, but I can sleep easier with the feeling I know where to go if I ever have another legal matter involving the ATO or TPB.
God bless to the Waterhouse team – my family’s future is safer and more secure by having you on my side.
Thank you for A++ help
Fantastic help
OMG – it’s the truth – you told the truth – that’s a strategy?! I LOVE it – I’m so happy – however the [government agency] responds will be OK by me. It’s perfect, you have made sense of a time in my life and behaviour and responses I didn’t understand.
The reasoning and explanation in your letter is more valuable to me personally than the [agency’s] outcome. A win would be great, but no matter what happens, I can definitely take heed of this, develop better insight, work on improving my response to confronting and conflicting events and have a happier life, which is and must be the ultimate goal.
Seriously grateful and overwhelmingly impressed by your ability to nail the issues in such a way that I will have peace of mind no matter what the outcome.

Thank you Waterhouse Tax Lawyers
I cannot recommend Waterhouse Lawyers highly enough. I am a tax agent and referred a client to the team at Waterhouse Lawyers who was in quite a bit of trouble after lodging numerous years of Income Tax returns very late but for good reason.
It was beyond me to try to tackle the issues we had with the ATO on our own. I was so relieved the first time I spoke with Tania, I just knew I could leave it in safe, capable hands. I was so confident after talking with her.
The staff handling everything communicated and updated us on the way and were a great support. We had an amazing outcome, but I knew they would achieve the result in the end, I just knew from the beginning.
You are all amazing there.
I hope not to use your services in future! But I am relaxed knowing there is a team out there that I can call on to assist any of my clients with the really big legal issues they have with the ATO.
Thank you all again. Thank you Tania. I hope we can keep in contact into the future.

Hi Lamees,
Thank you for helping to get our GIC remitted on our tax debt. What a successful outcome.
You have been wonderfully helpful and empathetic through this whole stressful tax debt process. I really don’t know how we would have managed without you!
Kindest Regards
Joan
