We help individuals, families, law firms and businesses with clarity, confidence and a commercially-focused approach.
Get in touchWe built BHP because serious tax advice does not need to come wrapped in pinstripes.
We are a specialist tax and legal advisory firm made up of tax advisers, solicitors, TEPs and accountants. We advise on complex property, private-client, trust, estate, commercial and HMRC matters - often where another adviser has identified the problem but does not have the internal tax expertise to deal with it.
We are direct, responsive and human. We do not believe clients should need a translator to understand their own tax advice. We also do not believe “approachable” should mean lightweight.
We are an award-winning boutique Tax and Law advisory firm, and what sets us apart is simple: we treat every client as a long-term partner, not just a matter to be resolved.
The firm was founded in 2008 by Olivia Bell and Simon Howley, born out of a desire to build something different. A business that not only looks after clients' business and family affairs today, but works hand in hand with them to enhance and protect their wealth for generations to come.
We do this by focusing on the relationships we build. This means being responsive, listening to our clients' needs, understanding their business structures, goals and objectives, and providing practical, commercially driven advice, every time.
Over the years, that commitment has made us the trusted advisor of choice for clients who want more than just expertise. They want a firm that genuinely knows them. Amanda Perrotton joined as a Partner in 2019, bringing with her deep expertise in Property and Trust Law, as well as the compliance, risk and regulation of law firms, further strengthening the depth and breadth of advice we are able to provide.
