Testimonials

SATISFIED CLIENTS

Thank you

Thank you so very much Tania.

Words cannot adequately express how grateful I am to you for your assistance with my complicated foreign matter.

You are approachable, understanding and patient and worked tirelessly, even over weekends, to attain an outcome beyond my expectations.

I’m finally able to sleep at night, thank you.

Amanda P—March 2017

Frustrated with the ATO one size fits all approach and the original law firm that I chose’s approach to not wanting to upset the ATO, I came to Waterhouse on recommendation.
Lucky for me, Tania and Charm were in the job the next day, grab all the information, dissected it, got to the central issue and started work in a proactive and informative manner.
Told immediately that if the case had no merit they would look to settle or take a stronger proactive stance.
It took some time and work, but success followed and very grateful to Tania and Charm.
Thank you

Grateful to Tania and Charm

Very fortunate to find her

Tania, thank you sincerely for the result you have achieved with the ATO who carried out an audit on my 2002 return (in 2014!). This was an incredibly stressful time with no records, living in another country and an accountant who was very unhelpful.

You have achieved an amazing result, one which I could not have achieved without your professional help. My final ATO account was a mere 1.3% of the original ATO invoice. Now I can resume a normal life.

Sincerely,

Jasmine

Jasmine A—April 2015

In a time filled with emotional and stressful challenges, seeking advice from Tania Waterhouse was the best decision I could have made. Her guidance provided me with the clarity and confidence needed to navigate through my issues. She has a remarkable ability to ease one’s mind with her expertise and genuine support. I highly recommend Waterhouse Lawyers for anyone in need of legal guidance.

Michelle K – April 2024

I highly recommend Waterhouse Tax Lawyers to anyone who has an issue with the ATO. The team were all fantastic and particularly Tania Waterhouse – she is a life saver! My wife and I had what we perceived to be a huge problem with our SMSF – after speaking to Tania we engaged her to take over and communicate with the ATO on our behalf and the end result was way beyond our hopes. We can’t thank you enough Tania – you have made our year! Best wishes and eternal thanks from Tony and Alison.
