The tax landscape never stands still, so neither do we. At Pillow May, we marry a deep understanding of tax legislation with forward-looking, holistic planning and meticulous attention to detail.
Where some accountants only reach out when a deadline loom, our approach is hands-on. We provide support whenever you need it and always keep you ahead of legislation or policy changes that could have an impact you.
So, you can rest assured that you’ll be in the safe hands of a team that’s always looking out for your best interests.
Our highly experienced taxation specialists are known as much for their personal integrity as their professional excellence. They work seamlessly together to provide you with the highest quality advice and service at the best value.
To further reassure you, our specialist team is personally overseen by our Founder and Managing Director, Jessica Pillow, who is a Chartered Tax Adviser, the UK’s most prestigious qualification in tax expertise.
For us, nothing is more important than nurturing a long-term relationship with you, built on mutual trust. We’ll take the time to get to know you, your family’s unique dynamics, and what matters most to you, both now and for the future.
Our tax specialists will work closely with you and your existing advisers, such as your solicitor or financial planner, to continuously improve tax efficiency across all your family’s assets.
Our advice is never one-size-fits-all; it’s personal, impartial and delivered with care.
Our service has been designed to be of real value far beyond your annual tax return. At its heart is a yearly 360° Family Remuneration Review that looks closely at your whole family’s financial position and goals, not just your own.
By taking a holistic view, and considering everything in the round, we’re able to recommend the most effective ways to structure your finances and mitigate tax in the right context – never in isolation.
You’ll receive personalised annual tax planning recommendations, giving you clarity and confidence that your finances are working to support the life you want.
Imagine being able to relax knowing your tax bills have been minimised, your financial affairs are tax-efficient, and you can pass on as much as possible to your loved ones? This is what our expert and trusted tax advice will help you achieve:
Helping you navigate the UK’s complex and sometimes challenging tax system. Our meticulous approach will ensure your finances are structured to maximise tax efficiency and unlock significant savings while adhering to all regulatory requirements.
Demystifying the ever-changing world of property taxes, making sure you take advantage of reliefs and keeping your estate in good order. By implementing effective systems and staying on top of key deadlines, our aim is always to protect what matters most and ensure your family continues to benefit in the future.
Reviewing your current pension plans to ensure that you’re taking full advantage of valuable allowances and tax reliefs without exceeding set limits.
Guidance on how best to pass on your family’s wealth to future generations and mitigate the financial impact on your family. We can also advise you on using options such as Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA) and trusts to further reduce both the tax burden on your estate and the administrative burden on your executor(s).
Advising you on tax-friendly investments, such as ISAs, the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS), as well as any new opportunities that may arise due to changes in tax legislation, to keep you on the front foot.
Guiding you on the use of trusts to fund school or university fees for your children or grandchildren. We will ensure the solution is not only tax-efficient but also aligned with your family’s wider financial goals, so you can give the next generation the best start in life without too much compromise.
