Xerxes Associates LLP

About Xerxes Associates LLP

A London specialist in cross-border personal and small-business taxation, this LLP was founded by Naveed Lasi more than a decade ago and now combines ICAEW chartered accountants with IRS enrolled agents, many with Big Four training. Its work centres on Americans living in the UK, British people in the United States, high-net-worth individuals and clients who are not UK-domiciled, who need both countries' returns handled consistently. Beyond filing, the partners advise on relocation planning, expatriation from the US tax system, late-filing remediation with the IRS and crypto-asset gains. The practice is also a certified acceptance agent for ITIN applications. Entrepreneurs can obtain guidance on entity choice and Companies House and HMRC obligations. The website is in English and does not list a language other than English; no published prices or team numbers are given.
