We all would prefer to pay less to the Revenue which is where a specialist adviser may be able to reduce our bill by the legitimate use of tax avoidance (as opposed to illegal tax evasion) by lawful technical measures. Most lay clients have no knowledge of these matters and place their faith in the abilities of financial experts often on a full fiduciary basis. Unfortunately here are times when things go wrong and you may need to take legal advice on a tax consultants professional negligence if you have suffered financial losses as a result of using their services.

People who give advice on this subject are required to follow a strict code of conduct and provide their clients with advice of the highest calibre. They must take full account of the client’s circumstances and needs, both now and in the future and should also ascertain whether or not they are risk averse. Failure to establish all of the relevant personal information may mean that a client is misled and makes the wrong decisions based on the advice. In these circumstances it may be possible to claim compensation for losses as a result of a tax consultants professional negligence.

In order to succeed in legal action for compensation following a tax consultants professional negligence it is necessary to establish that the adviser owes the client a duty of care and that negligence has caused direct financial loss. The normal relationship that exists with the client is sufficient to establish the existence of a duty of care which is breached by negligence if the adviser fails to act in act reasonably competent manner. Compensation can be claimed for losses that arise directly from the negligent advice however losses that are not easily foreseeable are deemed to be remote and cannot be claimed.
