Testimonials

SATISFIED CLIENTS

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 Michael,

Thank you so much.

I do not think we would get the outcome as good as this without your help.

I would definitely put 5 stars google reviews for you😊

Kind regards

Thank you for the great outcome Michael Cranston

Dear Tania

I want to thank you for responding so promptly to my request for assistance and thank you so much for assigning Lamees to look after our case.

She has been so very good to work with, I appreciate her skill at listening closely and understanding the specific details very quickly. She has assisted me personally by very gently managing my anxiety over this problem – by staying in touch and updating whenever possible.

We are of course hoping for a good outcome, but regardless of this it is comforting to know that she has a firm grasp of the issue and is dealing with it professionally and with sensitivity.

Kindest Regards

In disbelief at the positive ATO experience

I slept well last night for the first time in a long time, after which this morning, feeling rested was almost like a strange experience!

Many many thanks for co-ordinating such a positive and eventful meeting with the ATO. I was still in disbelief after we left, not only at the extraordinariness of the synchronicities that became apparent, but also at how everybody worked collaboratively towards a favourable resolution.

You were right in advising me the way you did beforehand, and I am tremendously grateful for that.

I’m looking forward to resolving all this soon and getting back on track with timely lodgement of my returns as and when they are due from now on.

Thank you again Tania, for your continued good work.

Some sanity returns to my life

For many years I have lived overseas and paid tax in my country of family residence and employment. You can imagine my surprise when I received a letter from ATO suggesting I might owe a return for the past 2 years including a list of overseas income. Alarm bells rang as I did indeed owe some returns, but fixing the issue opened a whole Pandora’s Box of issues that I knew could only be solved by a professional expert in Taxation Law.

I trolled the Internet for hours looking for a Tax Lawyer in my home city, most of whom were from very big firms. When I came upon Waterhouse Lawyers I immediately felt that I had found the right people even though we were miles apart. I engaged Tania and her team without a moment’s hesitation and was on board as a client minutes after discussion with one of her team.

Tania and her team have exceeded my expectations in all respects. At last I can sleep at night and find speaking to them a bright spot in my day. They quickly put me at ease by breaking down my issues into separate parts and providing solutions for each. Their honesty and really profession approach to client interactions is enhanced with their ability to make you feel that they are part of your family and really do care about outcomes that are in your best interest rather than feeding the corporate revenue stream.

I unreservedly commend Tania and her team to anyone with a Tax related issue.
