With Lawspeed consultants behind you, protect your commercial liabilities at the earliest possible stage. We believe in prevention rather than cure wherever possible on the basis that it is better to have the fence at the top of the cliff than the ambulance at the bottom.
In relation to IR35, contractors and interim managers cannot safely reduce their tax bills by joining simple “one size fits all” schemes. In contrast with some other service providers we recognised from the outset that the nature of the contractor's work arrangements are essential if IR35 is to be avoided. That thinking has been reflected in our cutting edge contract templates and products. For proof of the pudding we are proud to say that in a successful IR35 Commissioners case that was won by a contractor against the former Inland Revenue (Lime IT) Lawspeed drafted the terms that the Tax Commissioner singled out as being crucial to his decision in finding in favour of the contractor. The fundamental need for a discrete project basis to the work has been continually backed up by subsequent case law.
The IR35 legislation first and foremost is a legal issue – it creates legal tests based on employment law. Drawing on our knowledge of employment law and our in depth understanding of how contracting and interim management works we have always been ideally placed to advise in this area. Add to that our expertise in dealing with agencies, in the area of contracts, recruitment law, and business operations, and in dealing with the Revenue - you are provided with a service that is second to none.
Lawspeed has helped thousands of service providers (including interim managers, freelancers,
technology
and
construction companies
) in relation to employment status, contracts and operations since 1999 and has been an approved legal service provider to the PCG since 2001.
