MINIMAL TAX AUDIT RISK
Hugh is an ex tax auditor and knows exactly what IRD look for, and how far to advance your tax interests without raising red flags to IRD auditors. Perhaps that’s why we attract no tax audits. They know we keep within the rules, so leave our clients alone. We supply economical insurance cover which pays your accounting fees in the unlikely event that you are audited.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
“In comparison to my previous accounting firm, Hugh Lopdell and his firm have been a major factor in adjusting and bringing my accounts and tax up to date, and helped me put my company accounts back on track. They are honest and reliable and experts in their field.”
"We have been using the services of Hugh and his team for a number of years. They have always provided us with a professional and expert advice in relation to all our accounting needs. We can always rely that they will keep us regularly informed and the regular emails with what’s going on in the world that may impact on us are always welcome. Oak Park have a personal and proactive approach to guide us through the financial side of running of our business and they are always readily available to provide assistance or answer any queries."
"After a very poor performance of my previous long term accountants I was referred by a friend to Oak Park. They had to review the past accounts and advise on the correct accounting and tax treatment, basically an audit. They performed this difficult and time consuming task very professionally and advised me on the correct way forward. Nice to feel the love again. I appreciate their commitment and positive ‘can do’ attitude. I look forward to working with them in the future."
"We’ve been in business for 9 years and since appointing Hugh and his team we no longer dread accounting meetings. It’s more like talking to a good friend who is financially knowledgeable and cares about our business. They’re always in touch with what we need so their advice is sound and very relevant. We signed up for their full package which means we always know how much our accounting bills will be and we can call Hugh and his team whenever we have questions. It doesn’t matter who we deal with there, we’re always confident they have our best interests at heart."
“Oak Park have provided us with incredibly valuable and professional service. They care, understand what we do, and provide us with practical, down-to-earth guidance. We get no last-minute “surprises”, but can plan our tax and other commitments well ahead.”
“I have always had confidence in Hugh Lopdell’s genuine desire to help and encourage me in the business. Hugh is very good at what he does at both work and service and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a good quality accountant/business advisor.”
