TPB Investigation

Next Service >< Previous Service

As all registered tax agents know, a TPB investigation or review can result in the loss of your tax agent registration and the consequent loss of your firm’s practice.

In order to avoid this ultimate sanction, you should engage experienced lawyers who understand the TPB process and are able to deal with the Tax Practitioners Board on your behalf.

We have had many successful outcomes by putting a strong case forward on our client’s behalf.

Satisfied Clients

Excellent outcome

We are most appreciative of all your counsel and hard work on this matter.

It has been delightful working with you, and congratulations to you and your team for securing this excellent outcome for us.

Andrew H—June 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

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

Trisha F – December 2020

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

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.
