" Andrew Cazalet at Lido Tax Consulting has offered us a service above and beyond doing the accounts for our production company - London Ensemble Productions Ltd. Not only has he offered advice and support, he has been very proactive in helping us move forward and plan as a young production company. It is an absolute pleasure working with him. "
Scott Ainslie - London Ensemble Productions Ltd - 20/02/2010
" I approached Andrew regarding advice on setting up a new business overseas.
He is an absolute professional, obviously has a great depth of experience and understanding of his ever changing industry, explains potentially complex procedures in an easy to understand way, is always prompt in responding, is generous with his time and knowledge and has a good network of contacts overseas. A very likeable man who I would thoroughly recommend. "
Linda Cruse - 22/03/2010
Even though my financial affairs are not, in the scheme of things, major or particularly complex Andrew treated the matter professionally, courteously and discovered I'd substantially overpaid my NI contributions and was due a refund of almost £1000. Andrew was also flexible and friendly and I'd recommend him without hesitation.

" I consulted Lido Tax to seek advice on UK Tax for Non-Residents/Foreigners, and was met with an engaging level of attention from Andrew Cazalet, who took time to understand my case and come back with tangible numbers and next steps for me to address my tax situtation.
The price level was reasonable and I would most definitely recommend anyone seeking high quality, personalised, flexible, quick response, UK tax advice to contact Lido Tax. In perspective, I made the same request to several larger firms and did not even get a response!

" I initially contacted Andrew just to find out his specialism and whether he could assist me in providing guidance on the incorporation of a very large partnership business. Whilst incorporation of a partnership is a fairly standardised process, it does become complicated when there are many partners, it is a very specialised business with large capital/current account balances and properties. Andrew was very helpful in providing the support and expert knowledge in completing this assignment. He was very professional in his approach and kept me informed of the progress of the work at very stage. He provided detailed reports for the work carried out and responded quickly to any queries or concerns I had. Will certainly contact him for any tax consultancy advise /work in future.

" I'm grateful to my wife for many, many things; including introducing me to her accountant; Mr Andrew Cazalet. Andrew emerged as a superhero on the horizon after a someone else's ineptitude seriously threatened my bank balance.
When a PAYE error made years ago by a former employer came back to haunt me, the financial implications looked grim. I felt overwhelmed by the scale and complexity of the problem. The case appeared to be without any precedent and the situation was compounded by a series of acknowledged procedural errors by HMRC.
Within hours of asking for his advice, Andrew's diligence, expertise and first hand experience gave me confidence that there might be hope.
Andrew meticulously audited several kilos of my financial records, corresponded with HMRC on my behalf and gave me regular briefings to ensure I was kept fully informed, engaged and compliant.
(It's worth noting that Andrew's not just a gifted and impeccable accountant; he's also a 'reformed' Tax Man. And his experience of working for the Inland Revenue provides him with invaluable practical insight into the processes and protocols of HMRC.)
Without question, Andrew kept me sane and solvent. His tenacity and professionalism saved me a truck load of cash and I would wholeheartedly recommend his services without caveat or qualification.
He's also great at handlng the more mundane matters, such as tax returns!"

" I was very impressed with the quality of the advice I received from Lidotax concerning corporate taxes both in France and the UK. I am very careful about these matters and was pleased that I did not have to spend large sums of money to obtain precise advice. Andrew through Lido Tax Consulting has provided me with the solution to my dilemma. Thank you very much for your help. "
" J'ai été très impressionné par la qualité des conseils reçus concernant les impôts de sociétés en France et en Grande Bretagne. Je suis très vigilant sur ces points mais ne suis pas prêt à engager des sommes importantes pour obtenir les conseils adéquats. Andrew a travers Lido Tax Consulting m'a apporté la solution à mon dilemme."

"Andrew provided professional and personable tax consultation, and helped me understand how best to manage my wealth.

" As a small start up record label and computer sales business Andrew helped explain the tax system in the UK. He helped me obtain a Company number (for my new company) , Workers Registration number (authorising me to work in the UK for my company), National Insurance (social security) number and VAT (sales tax) number. He understood the interaction between my UK and Polish businesses. "

"As a London-based partner of a startup US LLC company, with subsidiary companies in the UK and Singapore, I found Lido Tax Consulting to offer a considerably more personal and value added service compared to the large accounting firm I had previously been using. Andrew’s expertise in cross-border tax issues was a great help. For example, Lido spotted and advised on a repayment of partnership capital as a means of rising net income of partners. Andrew also clarified the UK-US Double Tax Treaty, and has provided a personal and efficient service in more standard accounting services to the UK subsidiary. I would not hesitate to recommend Lido Tax Consulting".

different tax regimes in a manner wholly professionally and smoothly. I

“Andy is someone I have known a long time. He has been reviewing my taxes with me for the last 3 years. I find him to be trustworthy, helpful and highly responsive. Andy conducted a full review of my tax position and identified the fact that I was entitled to a relief that enabled me to reclaim taxes of over £3000. He conducted the whole process with HM Revenue & Customs which meant that all the hassle was taken away from me. Andy is someone who I have been able to call in an emergency on his mobile with questions about tax and other matters at all sorts of times. He is always ready to help and his costs are extremely reasonable. I have no hesitation in recommending his
services."
