Welcome to Haines Watts Leicester we are conveniently located in Stoneygate, working with owner managed businesses to help them achieve their business and personal goals.  Our aim is to provide our clients with real, hands on support, working closely with them to build long lasting and strong relationships.

As business owners ourselves we understand the challenges that you may face in running your business. Contact our Leicester office today to speak to an advisor that can help your business thrive and grow.

Tailored accountancy, tax planning, business and advisory services

Of course we provide all the normal accountancy and tax compliance planning services you would expect. However, we also offer a range of advisory services designed to help you and your business succeed. Services such as accounting, auditing, personal tax planning, corporate tax planning, tax reliefs including R&D, online accounting, payroll and VAT services.

Yes, we're a Leicester based accountancy firm, but can offer support and advice to businesses that have operations well beyond the East Midlands. We support businesses that not only operate across the UK but internationally as well.

Auditing & assurance services

Our auditors review your financial operations and make suggestions about improvements and best practice. To us, an audit is more than supporting our clients with their regulatory obligations. It’s an undertaking than provides you with comfort around your financial management and provides assurances for funders and key stakeholders.  

We work with a substantial number of UK subsidiaries of larger international groups. We understand that the quality of communication between us and you, as well as with management and auditors in other jurisdictions, is of paramount importance. Our teams are accustomed to delivering against tight deadlines and appreciate the wider context in which your entity operates.

Research & Development East Midlands centre of excellence

Our R&D experts are a group of personable, plain-speaking professionals who translate intricate tax legislation into easy to understand language. Not only that, Haines Watts combine R&D tax expertise alongside our extensive experience of owner managed businesses to maximise R&D claims.

We know more about how other business and tax matters interrelate with R&D tax credits claims. For example, the business structure and remuneration of key directors can have a significant impact on the level of qualifying expenditure so you need an advisor who can look at the wider picture.  Specialist R&D tax consultancies may not have this experience and only go so far in terms of understanding your business needs and building long-term relationships.

Private Client services

There are a raft of taxes that can whittle away your long-term wealth. What’s more, when your wealth is held across a number of assets like shares, property, investments, or tied up in your business – it becomes even more complex to manage.

Our private client specialists help you put in place measures that protect your financial future and enable you to keep control over how your wealth is extracted, used, or passed down the generations.

You're in safe hands with us, if you’re looking for an advisor to help you take your business to the next level, get in touch with us today.
