Guest repliedTim123's point 2) if true, and it sounds likely, is another good reason for not using specialist 'contractor' accountants.
Eh Rhino?

Guest repliedsome pointers:
1) Agree with Rhino (is it?, I forget). The experience of many suggests that you will get a better service at less cost by moving from JSA.
2) Wrt the revenue trawling JSA's clients because of the loss at the Commissioners then I would suggest that this is not actually connected. The IR are likely to target clients of 'contractor' accountants en mass, simply because it is easy for them to get a list of contractors this way (from your audited accounts). JSA are just your accountants, they take little or no part in negotiating your working arrangements and just because one of their client has 'losing' arrangements doesn't mean that they have a group of clients that has a disproportionate quantity of IR35 losses.
3) As to the 'ability' of JSA to handle IR35 cases at this level then the consensus of opinion elsewhere is that this was a very poor case and it is no surprise that the IR won. If there was any fault on JSA's part then it was in letting the case get as far as it did. But the reasons why this happened are not in the public domain and it isn't reasonable to actually apportion blame for this without this information.

Guest repliedCan't think why you were with them in the first place. Having said that they used me for 4 years - we are complete suckers.
When I with them they cooked up a global settlement with the IR for expenses paid prior to April 1998. The b******s cost me over eight hundred quid, some of which was their fee.
Get out now and don't look back!!!!!

It looks like the IR are going through JSA's clients. I was wonder if I should close down my company and move to another accountant or one of those foreign exchange deals like the one advertised by jobserve.
