Word of warning. I had exactly the same problem with a small local firm. I thought it would be better to go local and do the face to face thing but he was just a one man setup and I assume I was just small fry.
He completely screwed me over and never delivered a thing. SJD pulled me out of the mire at the last minute and were very good helping me out.
Once bitten twice shy for me and my advice would be give him a couple of calls/emails and if still nadda get out quick.

Companies House and HMRC are quite strict in what they deem as a reasonable excuse for late filing, and generally your accountant letting you down is not good enough. In their eyes you are the company director, and it's still your responsibility.
It certainly won't do any harm to call HMRC and Companies House to explain though.
When was the last time you heard from your accountant? Are they a member of a professional body you could complain to?

Accounts late .. not heard from accountant
My accountant has not submitted my 09-10 accounts as yet, and ignores my emails
They were due in 31st March.
Could "police action" be taken by Companies House as a valid reason for them not being submitted? I have not yet signed or seen the completed documents, and so I need to move fast to avoid any futher deadlines being broken..
