What do we do for barristers?
Services for barristers
Our first and most important role is to protect your interests by dealing directly with H M Revenue & Customs and with the Department of Social Security. You can depend on us for a service that’s tailored to your own particular needs.  Click here to enquire. 

Comprehensive support
Target Winters is near to the Inns in London and we work for many different clients including juniors, judges and QCs. We also handle management accounts, VAT, forecasting and payroll for many sets of chambers. Target Winters has excellent contacts with HM Revenue & Customs as well as local banks.  Click here to enquire.
 
From your first six, when you won’t pay income tax, all the way through to later positions we’ll support you with advice and record keeping (we even give lectures to new barristers). You’ll be treated as self employed by H M Revenue and Customs and we’ll help you to submit your annual accounts including quarterly VAT returns. A simple ‘cash basis’ is used for the first seven years of a barrister’s accounts, under which tax is assessed on fees received less expenditure. After that we can help you with the annual adjustments needed to reflect a ‘true and fair’ profit.
 
Beyond help with record keeping, Target Winters can help you make the most of an extensive range of tax deductions. For example, your capital allowances include cars, computers, home desk and chairs, wigs and gowns.
 
Planning ahead
Of course we’ll keep you fully informed about all future tax liabilities. However, tax planning is about more than knowing how big your next tax cheque will be. Target Winters has the breadth of experience needed to optimise your tax position as your career develops. 
 
We’ll make sure your accounts are drawn up to a beneficial date and we can advise on everything from tax-efficient pension plans through to options such as Enterprise Investment Schemes. We never support ‘artificial’ tax avoidance but you can count on us to lower your taxes while protecting your professional integrity. We’ll help you manage your wealth and progress towards your personal goals.
