Professional team with solid tax law experience
Hi Tania
Many thanks to you and your team for resolving the issue we had with the tax office. It was a long standing issue that had escalated. The matter was resolved quickly and efficiently by Waterhouse Lawyers.
We can’t recommend Waterhouse Tax Lawyers highly enough. They are a professional team with solid experience in tax law. We were in constant communication and supported through the whole process. What was a stressful situation was calmed by good communication with all parties and clear actions.
Thank you again,

Responsive, knowledgeable tax advice
I searched for a long time for responsive, knowledgeable tax advice. I finally found it with Waterhouse Lawyers.
I had very technical matters to address, and Tania Waterhouse invested many more hours than I paid for, and successfully resolved the issues. I am very happy with the outcome.
Equally valuable was the personal touch Tania brought to our interactions. I will use Waterhouse Lawyers’ services for all my future needs.
I unreservedly recommend them for any taxation matters.

Reid M—July 2016
Tania and her team supported me through a really difficult time dealing with the ATO following a long illness. Tania was able to ensure that I was remitted the full amount of general interest charges that had been imposed by the ATO, in circumstances when my initial request for remission had been rejected with seemingly no proper consideration or good reason. The entire team were so supportive throughout. Without her support, I may not have proceeded to push for remission of the charges and, without her knowledge of the ATO and lobbying of relevant persons, I do not have confidence that my case would have been properly considered by the ATO the second time round. My heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Waterhouse Tax Lawyers.

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.
