Casterbridge Hardy

At Casterbridge Hardy, we are a dynamic and forward-looking practice that has been firmly embedded in the local counties of Dorset and Hampshire, while also operating successfully on behalf of clients throughout the remainder of the United Kingdom, Gibraltar, Europe, and the rest of the world. Our policy has remained constant since the inception of the practice - we have no time for hyperbole. Clients do not expect to be told that they will receive excellent service or "new" or "developed" products - these are rights to which they are entitled and we do not disappoint.

Our Professional Services

We offer a personal and professional service focused on the needs of each individual client or family. Our services include:

• Accountancy: We prepare accounts to help in completion of self-assessment tax returns, produce financial statements to file at Companies House, and abridged accounts to ensure the minimum amount of your financial information is made public. We also identify areas where we can assist in minimising your tax liability, areas of the business that give you the most opportunity to make improvements, and use the accounts to help you measure where you are in meeting your goals and what actions you need to take.
• Tax Planning: We help with tax planning in relation to personal taxes, business taxes, tax efficient employee remuneration strategies, VAT planning, inheritance tax strategies, capital gains, profit extraction strategies, exit strategies, and employment status IR35 advice.
• Book Keeping: We take care of all your paperwork, including invoices, bank statements, and more, and prepare management accounts, VAT returns, and end of year accounts.
• Business Valuations: We provide business valuation services for unincorporated entities and shares in unquoted companies based in the UK, including assistance with dispute resolution and litigation.
