WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

“

SeaTec International

Scott Woodison - Vice President of Operations

“We are a US company and were introduced to BKL in 2017 when establishing our UK subsidiary. BKL brought a wealth of knowledge on doing business in the UK and accounting and tax implications with our US parent company.

We have worked seamlessly with David and Lucy Needleman in performing the statutory annual audit and preparation and filing of annual tax returns. Additionally, the firm processes monthly payroll, prepares and files quarterly VAT returns, and assists with regulatory filings with Companies House. All of this has been conducted remotely with our US accounting team with no issues.

Each person we have interacted with at BKL has been knowledgeable, personable, and great to work with. I would highly recommend David and everyone at BKL based on our experience.”

Eleven Therapeutics

Shaul Ilan - Co-Founder and COO

“Whatever service at BKL have provided – be it accounting & tax compliance, bookkeeping, VAT or payroll; guidance on structuring, employee share options and R&D tax credits – they have been highly professional, engaged and responsive, not just as individual experts but as one cohesive team.

Their specific expertise is matched by their personal, supportive approach. From the start, they have been real partners in our business.

We have been highly impressed with the entire team which forms a full solution in the financials and more. We feel fortunate to have BKL as our partners and can highly recommend BKL to other firms who are looking to set up operations in the UK.”
