Doing business in Australia
Specialist knowledge and advice for doing business in Australia
I have worked with Scott Jago and Paris Barns for over 15 years. As Allan Hall is the representative of the Alliott Global Alliance in Sydney we have a number of mutual clients. Both Scott and Paris provide great support for us on Australian tax and accounting matters. We refer clients with great confidence they will be incredibly well looked after. On a global front I have regular contact with Scott and Paris by attendance at the Alliott conferences throughout the world, and most notably with Scott now being the Asia Pacific Chair of Alliott Global. For us it’s important to our business to be able to have relationships with people like Scott and Paris (and the Allan Hall team) that we can rely on.
