After trying several other options for my clients, Garth is the go to man for Small Business CGT advice. Straight forward, smart and very efficient. Garth is not only an expert in his field, his streamlined and systemised data collection methods has made getting this advice for my clients the most efficient I've found. He's delivered robust advice within 3 weeks that other 'specialists' have taken 18+ months to do. His biggest value to myself and customers (outside the tax benefits) is his ability to explain very complex issues in a simplified manner to my clients. We use his services time and time again for Small Business CGT, delivering incredible results to our clients. Highly recommend!

If you need open heart surgery you don't go to your local GP, you go to a specialist. You go to the best Cardiothoracic Surgeon that you can find. Likewise, if you need the best tax advice on Small Business CGT Concessions you go to a specialist, not a generalist accountant...you go to Garth Drinkwater. Garth's expert advice was worth every cent and we're incredibly grateful that we found the right specialist that enabled us to optimise the sale of our business.
