I have known Simon for over a year since joining Best of And although I’ve not worked with him for Tax purposes we have worked together on a campaign for Halloween. Simon was my model for a headshot promotion and was fabulous. He is always approachable and we had a fun half an hour in the studio which resulted in a fab scary promo thanks Simon

"I got more than I bargained for" - in a most positive way!
Simon took personal control in helping me reclaim tax enabling my business to make true progress.
We had some glitches BUT he was most honourable in dealing with them in a way that gave him even more credibility. OF COURSE I would recommend Cooden tax consulting.

Thanks for the review Rich, I am really glad we actually met up to discuss your project. It really goes to show the extent to which R&D Tax Relief can be applied to almost any business, it all boils down to what you have done rather than what you are. I'll be in touch shortly, because I would love to use you as a case study.
We meet Cooden Tax Consulting (CTC) via referral and found the process both a useful and insightful exercise. The CTC team were informative and diligent in every step leaving us to provide information as needed while staying focused on operating our business.

Hi Nathan, thanks for the review, it was really interesting working with you and the team, delighted that you have managed to get the project to go live last year and that we managed to help you with a successful tax reclaim.
Simon is a true gentleman and such a knowledgeable man when it comes to tax relief and accountancy would definitely recommend his services to any business.

Marton, thanks, it was great meeting with you yesterday, you've got a very innovative business, that has a definite competitive advantage at the moment.
Whats not to like about this guy. Simon isn't your boring finance guy. He is personable, articulate, humorous but knows his stuff and will sort out your R&D or accounting issues with Aplomb. Use him and his company in the knowledge that you are in very safe hands....

I met Simon from Cooden Tax Consulting at the Ask The Expert Event. He gave me some really useful tips and ideas for my bookkeeping business. Having met Simon, I wouldn't hesitate to contact him for any help and advice on Tax relief in the future.

Thanks for the review Katie, good luck with the bookkeeping business, you'll do really well. If you come across a business doing something interesting with Science or Technology, you know where we are.
Simon makes a difficult subject look uncomplicated. He goes out of his way to explain it in layman terms and help you understand the process. Its free money effectively for something that you have already or will be developing . Worth a chat even if nothing comes from it , you never know. Who knew tax could be interesting! Thanks Simon for making a hard subject understandable and easy to talk about. A man in finance that has a sense of humour, they do exist!

Thanks Mandy, it is a tricky subject, but it is well worth looking into for a variety of companies and who knows if I keep finding them, when I need another person, I know where to come to find them.
We highly recommend Cooden Tax Consulting to other businesses. We saved £49k. We have really benefited from Simon’s work. He asks the right questions, crunches everything and knows what he needs to do to get results. we can’t think of anything Simon could do to improve his service. We have already recommended him to other business owners. Working with him is a real win-win situation.

I've not personally used Simon's services but I see him at a lot of local business events and there is always people queuing up to speak with him. Simon really knows his stuff. He is so passionate about everything he does when it comes to R&D Tax relief and so much more. What's more he speaks to you in a way that non tax brains can understand it and process. If you run a company you NEED to speak with Simon.

Fantastic service from Simon at Cooden Tax Consultants. I didn't think we had much R&D spend but, with Simon's detailed understanding of what constitutes R&D in all its forms, there was a lot more that we could claim. He is clearly an expert in the subject, and although our claim wasn't huge it's definitely worth pursuing. A great service from a friendly and expert team.

The service from Simon and Cooden Tax Consulting was brilliant, from the initial point of contact and thier desire to fully understand our requirement, the guidance and direction provided by Simon and of course the successful submission of our R&D Tax relief claim. Simon did a fantastic job understanding our business and the type of work we undertake quickly and accurately, which led to a straightforward, successful claim. I would not hesitate recommending Cooden Tax Consulting.
