How Can Our ASIC & ATO Investigation Lawyers Help?

At Kells, we have been very successful in achieving great results for our clients. We will work with you and your accountant to identify and deal with all the relevant tax issues as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.

We have an in-depth understanding and extensive experience with dealing with the ATO and its decision-making process, current policy position and managing tax risk.


Our team can assist with ensuring that you have the necessary evidence to discharge the onus of proof to satisfy a stated tax position. We work closely with our clients’ accounting team and conduct objective tax risk assessments based on various finance and accounting opinions.


Moreover, our experienced litigation lawyers are also experienced in handling ASIC investigations. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) can investigate companies and individuals whom they suspect of breaching financial laws and regulations. We can provide you with the exemplary legal advice and representation you need to successfully deal with an ASIC investigation.


Kells can help large and small corporates as well as private individuals with the following:


  • Achieve favourable outcomes in tax audits and taxation litigation
  • Advise complex tax issues
  • Assist in company structuring to ensure compliance along with preparing professional bespoke submissions to the ATO to achieve resolution of a tax issue
  • Connect with senior ATO decision-makers to facilitate early resolution of conflicted tax positions.
