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.

Court hearing for failure to lodge tax returns less daunting

HI Tania,

Whilst daunting, your assistance and representation at the hearing for my failure to lodge tax returns made it possible, and easier than anticipated.

I didn’t realize how much it was weighing on me until I decided to take my first afternoon off in over 20 years (apart from illness) and have just woken up…

Looking around the courtroom I feel for some of those people in a similar position who had no representation

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.

Thank you Pious for today. Both you and Michael were excellent in the meeting with ATO. As a matter of fact everyone at Waterhouse Tax Lawyers I have dealt with has been outstanding in making sense of all this.

Thank you Pious

Fantastic help

OMG – it’s the truth – you told the truth – that’s a strategy?! I LOVE it – I’m so happy – however the [government agency] responds will be OK by me. It’s perfect, you have made sense of a time in my life and behaviour and responses I didn’t understand.

The reasoning and explanation in your letter is more valuable to me personally than the [agency’s] outcome. A win would be great, but no matter what happens, I can definitely take heed of this, develop better insight, work on improving my response to confronting and conflicting events and have a happier life, which is and must be the ultimate goal.

Seriously grateful and overwhelmingly impressed by your ability to nail the issues in such a way that I will have peace of mind no matter what the outcome.

When I was audited by the ATOI was given the wrong advice by my legal and accounting advisers. I was therefore left with a very unfavourable outcome and I had to object

I engaged the team at Waterhouse Lawyers for my audit objection and they were able to successfully reverse some very poor ATO decisions. I wish I had contacted Tania and team as soon as I received the original audit notice rather than trying to deal with the matter myself.

Unfortunately due to the original advice I had, the matter then progressed to something of a very serious nature. I contacted Tania and she very quickly returned my call and was able to give me advice at a time that was terrifying for me personally.
