Is there more expensive accountants than SJD?

[maxima]

Simon mentioned once that there are 2 more expensive names in the business.

Is it known who they are?

Thanks

Any accountant that doesn't actually save you money is too expensive. Any accountant that does their job properly is effectively free of charge.

No. the question was without any sarcasm actually. Are there more expensive accountants than SJD? Who they are?

[malvolio]

The answer was without sarcasm as well. But since you ask, while I assume there must be, I don't actually know who they are.

Kpmg?

[maxima]

thanks. do you mean www.kpmg.co.uk ? have they got specialists in IR35 and IT contracting?

[Sockpuppet]

Yes. Give them a call I can't remember what they charge. I do know a mate of mine went to work for them in Cardiff though.

Why KPMG isnt a regular mention on here as SJD, 1st Acc Serv, Freedom whatevers I don't know. Maybe its because they don't post on here.

Maxima: if you find out what they charge let me know, also if they are any good on the IR35 front. I'm not in IT so having IT knoweldge not a good one for me.

Only 2! I never said that. Try:

JSA
360 Group
PlanIT
Hillier Hopkins
Just about any decent High Street firm

Price should not be the prime consideration when choosing an accountant,
of more importance is a firm that suits your needs: are they qualified, are they contractor specialists, do they have good credentials, will you speak to the same person twice, can you get on with them, are there exit fees, can you meet with your accountant - if you’re based in Scotland it makes no sense in having an accountant in London.
