Tax Debt - Waterhouse Lawyers - Tax Law Specialists

Tax Debt

Waterhouse Lawyers are experts at dealing with tax debt, particularly when the ATO has garnisheed a taxpayer’s bank accounts or is threatening bankruptcy.

We are generally able to arrange payment plans in even the most dire financial circumstances. In many instances we have successfully applied for reduction of the General Interest Charge.

The ATO is dramatically increasing its use of tax garnishee notices. Under a garnishee notice, the ATO can recover monies from third parties such as banks and employers.

Where the ATO has issued a garnishee notice, we can assist by ensuring the notice has been validly issued and, if so, negotiating the best possible outcome with the ATO for your tax debt.

Tax Debt Relief

Dear Tania

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Waterhouse Lawyers for the help you provided me to settle a tax debt this year.

You were able to relieve me of a substantial tax debt that had been incorrectly calculated on a property I previously owned.

I would also like to make special mention of Stefan Stojkovic, who dealt with the majority of my matter. He was diligent, quick and extremely helpful throughout a very stressful time in my life. Stefan was also very persistent and ensured he gathered all of the information that was needed to settle the matter as quickly and as seamlessly as possible. I truly appreciate the wonderful job he did!

Because of the efforts of Stefan and the team at Waterhouse Lawyers, I have since been able to move forward with my life.

I would happily recommend Tania and her team to anyone that is facing a tax debt.

Carolin L—November 2016

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

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts: tax debt

Saving my life and company

Hello Tania,

I hope this note finds you well.

You may or may not recall our case.

I will keep this short, as I can imagine you are very busy, but wanted to update you of the outcome. After you went into bat for me against the ATO in 2018, due to them issuing a garnishee over the company leaving me nowhere to go.
With your persistence we reached an agreement…saving my life and my company!

In our last conversation you asked me to let you know how we ended up and told me “show them that we would make it”!

Today I am emailing you with an enormous smile on my face…our ATO Super Guarantee Account debt was finalised in August, 2020 and today we received the attached statement from the ATO…as of 8th December, 2020 this is also finalised.
It has not been an easy journey, especially with the additional challenges of COVID…but we survived!

Thankyou Tania from the bottom of my heart, as without you I would not be sitting here typing this email.
May I wish you, your family and colleagues a very Merry Christmas and a safe New Year.

Warm Regards,

Trisha F
