Testimonials
SATISFIED CLIENTS
Tax residency thank you
Dear Tania and team
I came to learn of my tax issues when I returned to Australia after having been working and living overseas. I had no prior communication with ATO so this matter took me by complete surprise. The internet was my first call and when I saw Waterhouse Lawyers I was immediately struck by their credibility that told me I had come to the right place.
From the very first enquiry Waterhouse Lawyer’s expertise on tax residence, experience and professionalism were simply impressive. Communication with Tania, Keerti and Amanda were focused and kind. With the ATO’s final positive decision all the charges and interests amounting to $107,000 were completely cleared. I am exceedingly grateful to Tania and her team and will gladly recommend Waterhouse Lawyers to anyone with tax issues.
Thank you so very much

Shane B—April 2018
Thank you very much for helping us through the difficult period during the first half of this year. Michael’s proposal for a settlement with the ATO was fair, practical, and highly effective.
We are very pleased with the outcome — it allows us to refocus on our business and continue contributing more tax to the ATO.
A true win-win-win for all parties.
Thank you for arranging settlement with ATO
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
