Our practice is owned and managed by its partners, so you’ll deal with experienced accountants in Newcastle who really understand what it means to build, own and grow a business.

Straightforward advice: We pride ourselves on helping clients get the most out of their businesses, dealing with their financial issues in clear terms which they can easily relate to. Building strong relationships and being open and approachable demystifies the world of finance.

Being creative and proactive: Our aim is always to go that extra yard. We seek out opportunities and different ways to help you and your business, striving to do things better and more efficiently.

Understanding: At Haines Watts, we focus on getting to know you and understanding your business needs and personal motivations. Our philosophy is always to nurture high-value relationships.

Sector specialists: While most of our time is spent advising businesses, owner-managers and individuals across the North East, a particular specialism is our work with the voluntary sector. We’re proud to support and work with a diverse mix of charities and not-for-profits.

Expertise: Our partners, managers and advisors have the experience to advise both individuals and businesses to help them to succeed, prosper and grow. We’re specialist small business accountants and during our 40 years in the North East, we’ve helped to drive success in a diverse range of owner-managed businesses. We’re also the leading advisors for R&D tax relief in the Haines Watts national network.
