Accountants are vital for managing finances and ensuring tax compliance. If you have faced financial losses due to their negligence—like missed tax deadlines or inaccurate advice—CEL Solicitors can help. We specialise in accountant negligence claims and will guide you through seeking compensation for their errors.
Accountant negligence occurs when an accountant fails to meet expected standards, leading to financial loss for their client. This can include missing annual returns, providing incorrect tax advice, or not detecting errors in financial statements. If your accountant missed fraud or gave poor service that affected your assets, you may have a valid claim for professional negligence.
Whether your accountant is a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAEW), Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) or a Certified Chartered Accountant (ACCA), they are bound by a duty of care. If they breach this duty and you suffer financial loss, you can pursue a negligence claim. Our team of professional negligence solicitors can help you navigate the complaints process and determine if you have grounds for a claim.
At CEL Solicitors, we specialise in professional negligence claims against accountants and have helped many clients recover compensation for financial losses. We will thoroughly assess your case to establish if there has been a breach of the duty of care and advise you on the best course of action. If there is evidence of accountant negligence, we will guide you through the complaints procedures and the legal steps needed to bring a claim.

Accountant negligence can take many forms, from inaccurate tax advice to mismanagement of your financial records. Below are common areas where CEL Solicitors can assist you:
Incorrect tax advice can lead to HMRC investigations, fines, or missed opportunities to save money. If your accountant’s advice has caused financial harm, you may be entitled to compensation.
Failure to meet critical filing deadlines, such as for tax returns or company accounts, can result in penalties and other costly consequences. If your accountant missed these deadlines, their negligence could form the basis of a claim.
Errors in your financial statements can harm your business’s financial health and reputation. If your accountant’s mistakes have led to these issues, CEL Solicitors can help you hold them accountable.
