Collins Hume | We have one focus — YOU —with us, you'll be looking way beyond the traditional horizons most accountants are restricted to. CHANGE. Changing your current accountant may feel like a stressful scenario you'd rather avoid. Perhaps you've justified staying with your current firm because you've always been with them. Or maybe you tell yourself the hassle of changing is too hard - even with an accountant who isn't providing the level of service your business demands. We get it. If you feel you're not getting all that you should from your existing relationship, it costs you nothing to get a second opinion. We are happy to offer that second opinion at no cost to you. Why not meet us to discuss exactly what you need? There's no obligation; this is just an opportunity to talk with specialised business professionals who aim to do their utmost for YOU, your family and your business. No stress; we will make it simple for you. If you decide the time has come for a change, we'll take care of everything else, including: Contacting your current accountant explaining that you are moving your business to Collins Hume Arranging for any of your books or records which they currently hold to be transferred to us; Obtaining copies of your previous financial statements, tax returns and any other necessary information; Advising the ATO, ASIC and any other government offices that we're now looking after your affairs. We limit the number of new clients we take on each year to ensure we continue to offer our existing clients exceptional services. So please don't delay in contacting us. Let's Begin
