Specialised accountants

[Stag Cozier]

Most accountants (specialist or not) will be able to handle your personal tax affairs. Disposals of investments really isn't too complicated or unusual.

I agree. It's just an extra page (CGT) that they would need to fill in. If you have straight forward gains or disposals, they should be able to handle it.

I find myself in a situation where I might need an accountant for my business accounts and I will also certainly need an accountant for my personal tax situation (due to the fact that I might dispose of a large amount of investments).

I am wondering whether I should get a accountant who specialises in one area (e.g. investment taxation), and get them to do both, or whether I should get two different accountants (one specialist in each area).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Intouch Accounting who look after my limited company accounts also advise me on my personal taxation. It guess it depends how complex your affairs are, but I am confident they would tell me if I needed a specialist. Until then I will stick with with just one!
