Legitimate claims, handled with rigour and integrity.
Research and Development tax relief rewards businesses for true and honest innovation, but the landscape has changed. HMRC has significantly tightened its approach to R&D claims, and businesses are right to look carefully at advice.
Wbg handles R&D tax relief with the rigour and integrity the current environment demands. We don’t process claims at volume or offer off-the-shelf advice. We take the time to understand your work, assess whether it genuinely qualifies, and prepare robust, well-evidenced claims that stand up to the scrutiny, they will absolutely be put under.
We support innovative businesses through the full R&D claim process, including:
Frequently asked questions
R&D relief is for work that seeks an advance in science or technology by resolving existing uncertainty – and it’s not limited to labs and scientists. We’ll assess your activity honestly and tell you clearly whether it qualifies.
HMRC is scrutinising R&D claims far more closely, and a weak or overstated claim can trigger an enquiry. You want an adviser who prioritises accuracy and integrity over volume, because a claim that doesn’t stand up can cost you more than it saves.
We prepare claims to withstand scrutiny in the first place, and we can support you through an enquiry if one arises – including reviewing claims prepared by others.
If a previous claim was prepared without sufficient rigour, it’s worth reviewing. We can assess your exposure and advise on the right course of action.
It depends on your qualifying expenditure and the rules that apply to your claim. We’ll give you a realistic, honest assessment rather than an inflated headline figure.
