Testimonials
SATISFIED CLIENTS
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.

Grateful for tax advice
I am grateful to Tania who has offered her assistance.
Tanis’s free of cost consultation has proved that ‘yes ‘there are human beings who helped others in this materialistic world.
No wonder Tania you are highly professional and very kind hearted individual. My entire family is grateful to you. My words are not scripted it’s a real time experience of ordinary individual who is not representing any corporation or business enterprise.

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
John T—July 2020
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
