Thirty years at Gross Klein

We would like to congratulate Didar Ladhani on 30 years of service at Gross Klein. To celebrate, Anthony and Howard made a very special presentation to Didar at our enjoyable Christmas luncheon last year.

Didar’s role in the firm has developed into being our tax compliance and statutory expert. He is the man that makes sure your tax return is right and filed on time. He also enjoys forming companies and doing statutory work, such as the appointment/resignation of a director and/or company secretary, change of registered office address and preparing the minutes.

Didar is married to Shirin and has two children, aged three and eight. He was trained by the firm and we are really proud that he has stayed with us for so long. We hope that he continues to do so for many years to come as he is so kind and helpful to all of us.

Another of Didar’s roles, is that he can help you decide whether you are employed or self-employed. This is very appropriate to this edition as we include an insert prepared by RadcliffesLeBrasseur, solicitors, on employment law. Although such law, according to the Employment Appeal Tribunal in Scotland, is about “a horse and a camel”, RadcliffesLeBrasseur, a firm which has 43 partners and 156 staff across 3 offices, provides you with some very helpful hints and tips on dealing with temps and helping you to decide whether you are employed or self-employed. Information is also provided on IR35, a subject which has created all sorts of issues for independent contractors who operate through limited companies. Gross Klein has worked with RadcliffesLeBrasseur for many years. Special thanks for the Business Briefing go to Michael Elks, senior partner and head of the employment law department, and his colleague Rebecca Watson.

Once again, many congratulations to Didar.
