This has seen it tackle everything from corporation and personal tax issues, through to tax consultancy, which has offered its dedicated team some rewarding challenges.
Mr Macdonald said: “We’ve just been at the Southern Business awards and we were very glad to see one of our clients, ETI in Worthing, win. We are aware many companies have suffered in recent years, but it’s those such as ETI, who have exported that have done well due to the pound being seen as attractive during the past five years or so.We have actually had a good year ourselves and have taken on a lot more new clients-our business is up 20 per cent on this time last year,” revealed the managing partner, who said its improved fortunes had enable it to recruit several new members of staff.
