He was able to show us not only points of law that had been violated, but also internal CRA procedures which also had been violated by the CRA itself. This information proved invaluable in mounting a defence.”
“Dealing with the CRA during an audit is never an easy thing for businesses, however having Andrew working on your behalf can bring great reassurance. He is an invaluable asset to any business looking for professional representation when addressing any CRA issues.”
