Alan

Have yet to come across a firm that has such a holistic and in depth knowledge of accounting and tax matters relevant to startups. The fact that the High Growth team at Cooper Parry is a quasi startup itself helps - I think they have more empathy as a result. I have appreciated the willingness of the team to give direct advice and not "sit on the fence" - when I am paying for your advice, what I value is your opinion as a subject matter expert. Everyone I have dealt with has been incredibly friendly and made time at short notice for me. Only negative was that our annual account process was very rushed (this was partly our fault for engaging you late in the day), but we submitted our accounts on the day of the deadline and it felt like the team were under a lot of pressure (with multiple other commitments).

Rob

R&D Claim: Its been a good year for the innovation side of what we achieved together with tax savings. The savings were driven from our request to try to get Patent Box on our packaging solutions. So whilst CP have done a good job in terms of delivering the process, the driver of the largest change to our innovation claim was driven from ourside. However, this was done quickly and clearly and delivered extremely well to HMRC giving us the best chance for them to make the right decision to aid our business so thank you :) The additional cash will allow us to pay off deal debt quicker --> sell quicker--> Retire quicker :)
