Taxation and Revenue
Australia’s taxation legislation rests in books numbered in volumes that stack metres high. At any given moment, up to 100 taxes and imposts from these books could impact your business, many of which are more complex than income tax.
The tax regime in this country has an impost for just about every transaction. Whether it be the outwardly simple but instrinsically complicated Goods and Services Tax (GST) or Payroll Tax, you can be sure the Australian Taxation Office and the State Revenue Offices will have an impact on your business.
At the end of the day, profitability could be determined by how well you manage your taxation risks.
That means you need advisers who know tax, not just ones who know about tax.
The outstanding Taxation and Revenue team at Middletons knows and understands tax like few others, but more importantly we know how to take a commercial approach to our advice and present it to you in a way that you understand.
We may not understand Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, but we could help him through his taxation issues by optimising his tax position with sound commercial advice that challenges his thinking.
We have substantial experience in advising on issues in corporate tax, GST, stamp duty and in disputes with the ATO and other revenue authorities.
Providing you with excellent technical yet commercially savvy advice is a core team of lawyers whose qualifications in both the legal and accounting fields are complemented by significant postgraduate studies.
We look to be knowledge leaders across a variety of industries including major projects and infrastructure, transport and logistics, property and development, manufacturing and retail, energy and resources, and financial and banking services.
This approach means that we have a deeper appreciation for the ‘nuts and bolts’ of your sector and its operating environment than you might realise.
With offices in both Melbourne and Sydney, we are well placed to offer you a single service legal resource of real value. A smaller, less leveraged team means Middletons provides full partner involvement in any transaction.
It’s another example of how you benefit directly from our experience.
Our new approach to legal services is unlike that of any other law firm: we don’t want to just offer you great advice, we want you to profit from it.
