Successful residency objection – grateful to Waterhouse Lawyers

What a relief! I am thrilled with the ATO residency decision that I was a non-resident when I was working overseas.

And have you to thank for the amazing support, care and professionalism in every aspect of my case.

I have no doubt I have chosen the right lawyer for my needs and am very grateful for your expertise and diligence.

John T—May 2019

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

Help with DPN, tax debt

Thanks for ATO tax advice

Dear Tania, thanks for your help. You have been instrumental in keeping my spirits high these past few weeks as the ATO enquiry was one of many issues I had to deal with at present.

When it comes to tax correspondence and official dealings with the ATO the usual anecdote is always to seek expert advice, but advice given is only one part of the story. The personable approach, understanding of your clients’ pain points and delivering on that developed empathy is many times more valuable in effect than perhaps the advice itself.

You aced that approach when dealing with my situation, understood my story and went far beyond the mile or service benchmark that I would normally expect any professional consultant would go to.

So, in that regards, I unreservedly am happy to recommend you to any contact I know who wants to get the right advice and in a way that he or she are also satisfied with the interaction.
