Patrick McNamara & Associates

About Patrick McNamara & Associates

Four partners run this Cork practice, which looks after clients ranging from sole traders to large companies across a wide mix of industries. Its partners have backgrounds in audit, corporation tax and company administration, and one of them previously worked on international and domestic corporate tax at a large network firm. The practice carries out statutory and grant audits, prepares accounts, handles bookkeeping and management reporting, runs payroll and manages tax compliance and planning. Company secretarial work forms a distinct service line that includes assistance with forming companies, annual returns, registers and minutes. Where a client belongs to an overseas group, the audit team has experience coordinating group audit requirements. The firm also operates a structured ACCA training programme. The website is available in English only and does not display fees, since quotes are given as fixed fees after an initial meeting.
