    Admittedly Nixon Williams are only about 80 miles from where I live, but I can't see when I'd ever especially want/need to go in person.
    Think I must be an old git....

    I will give them a call and see where we go. But I would prefer a small accountant in Leeds rather than a large firm that relies upon a myriad of "trainee accountants" to do all their work...

    Nope not yet. Thought someone on here would come up with a local recommendation.
    For the moment I am going to do some DIY accounts when I find a bit more time I will call a few accountants.

    So as a BUMP for this thread....

    Still looking for a recommendation for an accountant in Leeds...
    Not looking for monthly accountant.
    Just someone to help me set up, don't know if to go limited or sole trader.
    Compile unaudited at the end of the year.
    Help with Tax affairs etc...

    I'm a Nixon Williams customer and I've no cause for complaint. They did the company setup, have offered professional advice and always answered questions quickly. All submissions have been on time and they've reminded me when they need info.

    Very short contracts for different companies.
    Not full time.

    Would ideally like face to face.
    Can prepare books to ETB

    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    WHY? unless you have particularly complicated tax arrangments its a waste of an afternoon, Nixon Williams get my vote

    Hi All

    First post so please be kind

    Looking to set up a company, and want to do it right.
    Not in the same league as most of the other members on here. Supplying a niche service to a really small client base... Will be lucky to hit the VAT threshold.

    So looking for a small friendly firm of accountants / accountant to hold my hand for the first few months or year. Advice on sole trader or limited company etc.

    My old boss always said an accountant should save you more from good advice and planning than he costs.

    Any recommendations would be most welcome. Including cost I should expect.

    Thanking you all in anticipation.
