Burgess Hodgson has added specialist tax relief capability through acquisition. The deal brings capital allowances and R&D tax relief expertise into its wider advisory offer for UK clients.


Wandsworth Consulting, founded in 2014 and based in Surrey, works across capital allowances and R&D tax relief for clients ranging from technology start-ups to global real estate investors. Burgess Hodgson said the acquisition extends the support available to its client base of owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurs, real estate investors, and mid-market corporates across Kent, London, and the wider UK.

Richard Stewart, Chief Executive of Burgess Hodgson, said: “This acquisition represents an important step in our long-term strategy to strengthen and broaden our specialist advisory capabilities. Wandsworth Consulting’s expertise in capital allowances and R&D tax relief complements our existing strengths perfectly. Just as importantly, we share a common philosophy: exceptional technical insight delivered through genuine, long-standing relationships and a commitment to helping clients achieve sustainable success.”

Wandsworth Consulting will continue to operate under its own name in the near term as part of the wider group. Patrick Knight, director and founder of Wandsworth Consulting, said: “From the outset, it was clear that we share the same values, a focus on expertise, trusted relationships and high-quality, commercially minded advice. By combining our specialist knowledge with Burgess Hodgson’s wider advisory capabilities, we are creating a powerful platform that will enable clients to access a broader range of services and deeper technical support. We are proud to become part of a firm that is ambitious, forward-thinking and genuinely committed to delivering outstanding client outcomes.”
