If you would rather sit across a table from your accountant than explain your finances over email, you want someone local. Synergy Tax is based at 25 North Row, Mayfair, London W1K 6DJ — a 4-minute walk from Marble Arch station — with a second office in Southend-on-Sea.
We work with individuals, sole traders, landlords and limited companies across Westminster, the City of London, Camden, Islington, Kensington and Chelsea, and Canary Wharf. If you are further out, our cloud-based workflow on Xero, QuickBooks and FreeAgent means most of our clients never need to visit the office at all — but the option is there.
Why work with a local accountant instead of a national firm
- Face-to-face when you want it. Some conversations — a HMRC enquiry, year-end planning, a business sale — are easier in person. A local office means that is actually possible.
- A named contact, not a call centre. You deal with the same person each time, not whoever picks up.
- Familiarity with London-specific issues — high property values affecting CGT and IHT planning, the concentration of contractors and freelancers, and the mix of UK and international income many London clients have.
