FEE PROTECTION

Fee Protection

No taxpayer is immune from HMRC investigation, enquiry or dispute.

Business Support Helpline

Business clients who take out fee protection also gain access to the Markel Business Support Helpline, providing practical advice from experienced professionals on employment law, health and safety and commercial legal matters.

Fee protection in practice

The firm's case studies illustrate the value of cover. A small family-run restaurant faced a four-year HMRC enquiry into alleged understated sales; accountancy fees of just over £7,000 were covered. A small family-run building firm won a VAT dispute saving over £30,000 in VAT, with £8,500 of representation costs covered over three years. A sole trader landscape gardener successfully defended a three-year investigation into alleged understated sales, with approximately £7,000 in fees covered. A medium-sized retail firm incurred just under £10,000 in fees during an eighteen-month enquiry, after which the company owed only a further £200 in tax.
