Services
We are an independent firm of Leeds Accountants operating in north Leeds. We are passionate about helping individuals and smaller owner managed businesses in all sectors to meet their compliance responsibilities. Our objective is simple; to be viewed by our clients as the first point of contact for all their financial, advisory and compliance needs.
We consider that our range of services falls into two main categories, namely that of Compliance and Support. In an era of ever more business being conducted online, one of our defining features is that we are always available to clients who simply just want to meet or talk through any issues that they have.
Your accounts are a valuable source of financial information to help you understand and run your business by supporting decision making and forward planning. In order to meet your regulatory and compliance requirements we will prepare your annual accounts from your detailed accounting records, whether you are a sole trader, partnership or limited company.
There is no reason to pay more tax than you have to. By carefully arranging your affairs you can legally reduce your taxation liabilities. With our expert advice and our detailed knowledge of your business, we are ideally placed to identify tax planning opportunities and take steps to minimise your tax bills.
There are many reasons why businesses choose to incorporate and trade as a limited company, rather than as a sole trader or a partnership for example. Paying less tax, gaining limited liability status and increasing your businesses credibility are the main three reasons. When you set up a new business as a limited company, or convert an existing business into one, the formation of the actual company is only the first step.

In 2003 I bought an Alfa Romeo. This did not prove to be a very good decision.
The car broke down close to Paul's office and in that way I met and hired him as my accountant. That proved to be a far better decision.
Paul has, as a result, been assisting me with my accounts for almost twenty years.
His patient and professional approach has provided me with valuable support over many years.
I have not the slightest hestitation in recommending him to anyone who is self-employed or is running their own business.

I met Paul at a networking event in Leeds when I was setting up my business in 2018. He came across as very knowledgeable and was working with lots of other small businesses.
This gave me the confidence to appoint him as my accountant and since then he has been my first point of contact for all sorts of financial questions (god help him!). And every now and then we have a nice chat on the phone to help keep us both sane, working from home.
I can recommend Paul for his in-depth (and up-to-date) knowledge, thoroughness, and prompt replies. What more could you ask for in an accountant!

One of the best decisions I made when I started my creative business in 2014 was to appoint Paul as my accountant. As a small business owner myself, the benefit of building a good working relationship with a trustworthy and highly knowledgeable individual like Paul far outweighed those offered by a larger firm. He offers clear, sound advice and has helped me better understand the complexities of tax, as well as the benefits that are available. I would have no hesitation in recommending Paul to any new or existing small business looking for an affordable, friendly and highly motivated accountant

I first met Paul many years ago when the practice he worked for undertook my employers corporate accounting. Having recently set up a commercial Property Consultancy Business on my own, I was delighted to discover he had established his own practice nearby and he was able to sort out all my business accounting requirements, payroll, corporate and personal tax affairs in the blink of an eye and at a very competitive cost. He even solved an apparently unique government gateway problem I had created for myself.

Paul has been my accountant since I started my business six years ago. Throughout that time he has given me invaluable advice about my tax and other aspects of my business. He explains the processes and his actions very clearly – and he certainly needed to at first because I, as a linguist, much prefer words to numbers! He prepares my monthly payroll, annual accounts, personal and corporate tax returns and is a practical problem-solver whenever accounts-related queries arise within my business. He is qualified, knowledgeable and very experienced, so is able to draw upon his many years of specialising

I have used these accountants for the last 14 years and have always been extremely pleased with the services received and with the level of professionalism and always a very prompt response. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a local Leeds accountant. I find him extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

Paul delivers a highly professional service; his in-depth knowledge of the complexity of tax, quick to respond, attention to detail is why I have put my trust and business with him since my business start up 7 years ago. I just know I'm in safe hands with All Paul Limited and therefore this unequivocal recommendation. My single best business decision I have made.

Paul Clifton was appointed my company's accountant over six years ago and I have not had one moment's regret in that time.
Paul is responsive to my queries (usually responding within one-two working days), offers absolute clarity regarding his costs prior to carrying out my requests and (most importantly) makes regular returns to HMRC and others with alarming punctuality and detail.
My business is allied to the housebuilding and utility industries and that's the bit I know best and is where my company earns it's money. Aside from maintaining daily records, all other business is entrusted to Paul
