Originally posted by WillmLawspeed offer a fast and cost effective contract review service. Turnaround is a maximum of 3 working days.
If it is IR35 that you are worried about, their status review service is also more detailed than many accountant's offerings as it takes into account your actual working practices and not just the contract terms.
See:
http://www.lawspeed.com/providers/se...w_options.aspx
Furthermore, Lawspeed are now offering an IR35 advisory service. Clients of which are guaranteed to operate outside of IR35.
Contact William Morris on 01273 236236 or [email protected] for further details.
Read the thread before posting up Will. Its not IR35 issues he's concerned with.Comment
