If you are thinking of starting, or have recently started your own business, then getting the right advice can make a significant difference to the success of your new business, and the amount of tax you pay.

 

Statistically 80% of new businesses fail in the first 5 years, and out of those remaining, 80% fail in the following 5 years – which means that only 4% of businesses make it past their 10th anniversary!

We have helped hundreds (possible thousands) of startup businesses and many of them have gone on to be hugely successful – some reaching turnover of £10m and more. Using our vast experience of working with these businesses, and our expertise in business, finance and taxation, we can help you avoid the mistakes many new businesses make so that you succeed.

Our team has expertise in a wide range of areas including specialist audits, advanced tax planning, business growth and consulting and complex dispute resolution to name but a few.

    Client Case Studies

    CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

    • We started up our business without much prior knowledge or experience of accounting, which was by far the most daunting part about starting the business for us, and we can safely say that Sibbalds have been a undeniable help.

      They have supported us with everything from the start, including the initial set up, all the way through to transitioning from a sole trader to a limited company. They have always been there to assist with our “what on earth does this mean” moments, and if we ever needed a question answered quickly Jay was always there to support us, and explain processes and systems in a way that we could understand, which has been immensely beneficial and extremely appreciated.

      Thank you Sibbalds!

    • From the early days of the company formation to the high growth we are now seeing, Hari and the team at Sibbalds have always supported us with a first-class service and been the business lifeline when we really needed it.

      Helping to deal with company accounts, R&D claims, grant audits, funding advice, director/shareholder changes and general advice.

      I would not hesitate to recommend to local businesses.

    •  We are truly delighted with our strong working ‘partnership’ with Sibbalds Chartered Accountants.

      The team has helped us purchase a company larger than our own and continues to help us flourish and grow in our specialised legal sector. Hari and the team at Sibbalds are a safe pair of hands to turn to for our accounting and tax advice.

      They have been integral to our recent operations for further expansion; often the voice of reason when faced with pages of calculations, reports and figures. We would genuinely be lost without their help and support.

    • Glentworth Security transferred our accounting to Sibbalds in 2013.

      During this time Hari and his team have provided excellent support to us through completing regular management accounts and telephone support.

      In 2023 Hari was involved in my purchase of Coast Services (UK) Ltd.

      Not only did he do an excellent job in assisting with the process which at times was stressful he and his team took on additional work allowing me to concentrate on completing a smooth purchase.

      As part of this process Sibbalds have:

      • Taken on completion of management accounts for both Glentworth Security Ltd and Coast Services (UK) Ltd.
      • Assisted with the implementation of Xero in both companies.
      • Provided support for invoicing and payment reconciliation.
      • Completion of P11d’s
      • Payroll

      I cannot recommend Sibbalds highly enough. Not only does Hari and his team provide excellent support to both businesses but he also goes the extra mile to understand our businesses and assist in achieving our goals.”
