Protecting professional fees

Article Abstract:

Accountants are frequently blamed by clients for any misdemeanors uncovered by investigations by the UK Inland Revenue or Customs and Excise, and the subsequent fines can cause a client to sue accountants for negligence and deny payment for service rendered. Accountants can receive protection from the negative consequences of investigations though professional fees protection insurance schemes. Insurance schemes offer accountants many advantages, including prompt payment of fees, recovery of realistic fees, and upfront settlement of premia. Schemes offered by Copperfield & Co Ltd, Hargreaves Lansdown Insurance Brokers, Hambro Legal Protection Ltd, IRPC Tax Protection Service, Johnson Fry Tax Disputes Insurance Protection Scheme, and Professional Fee Protection Ltd are profiled.
