Anthony Collins Solicitors LLP

“We instructed Anthony Collins Solicitors to assist with HMRC inspection of our working and pay practices. ACS supported us throughout the inspection – assisting in helping us prepare for the initial meetings with our inspecting officer, helping with the communications we had with HMRC, assisting in preparing all information and documentation that was sent to HMRC and positioning our working and pay practices in a way that satisfied HMRC of our compliance. On matters where HMRC raised further questions and concerns, ACS assisted us with influencing HMRC to take a pragmatic approach, which resulted in no notice of underpayment being issued and instead us committing to changing our practices going forward to ensure our compliance was well documented. ACS’s in-depth knowledge of NMW legislation and practical experience of handling HMRC inspections, resulted in the inspection coming to a successful conclusion. We would highly recommend using Anthony Collins Solicitors’ team, the service we got from them was first class.”

“Anthony Collins Solicitors took the time to understand the complex requirements of our membership organisation and its democratic principles. The work required was completed very efficiently within a challenging time frame. In addition, we were guided through some of the practical details surrounding implementation in a most helpful way. I would have no hesitation in recommending Anthony Collins Solicitors to any organisation undertaking a similar process.”

“We have worked with Anthony Collins Solicitors for many years, and we know that our members value highly the expertise of the team and their deep involvement in the community sector. They were a key part of delivering the COMA programme, and their knowledge of asset transfer and the associated governance and property issues was invaluable. They worked hard with us to ensure that the technical requirements of the programme were met, but most of all their work had a real impact on local communities.”

“For the past few years, we have engaged Anthony Collins Solicitors for support across a multitude of projects as well as ad-hoc advice. The quality of the support and advice received to date across the board cannot be faulted. Anthony Collins Solicitors is proactive in its approach to meet our needs, and have proven to be meticulous, and their flexible attitude also helps maintain a strong and close working relationship. Based on my experience, I have no hesitation in recommending their services.”

“The guidance and reassurance provided by Anthony Collins Solicitors for our board and executive team enabled us to make a confident decision about the creation of the cost-sharing group. Their input meant that, instead of taking a leap of faith, we could accurately gauge the potential benefits to our organisation, and more importantly, to our residents. The process was a commercial and legal minefield but thanks to Anthony Collins Solicitors support, we were able to negotiate everything smoothly and successfully, and the expert knowledge they offered was far greater than anything that we could have garnered in-house.”

“We work with ACS because they share our commitment to building sustainable communities across the country. The fact that they know the sector so well means they already understand the challenges we’re facing, so the support they provide goes further than just legal advice, they provide real solutions. I know they will help us achieve the best results for the people we work with, which is one less thing for me to worry about.”
