A different kind of advisor for directors under tax pressure.
Business Tax Debt Help was founded on a simple observation: the SME directors who needed help most were being routed straight to liquidators — the one professional whose duty was to act against them.
Our story
Built to give directors what the system doesn’t.
BTD exists because the path most stressed directors are pushed down — straight to a registered liquidator — rarely serves them. By the time many of our clients reach us, they’ve been told their only option is to wind up. In most cases, that turns out not to be true.
We combine an accounting and tax advisory practice with an associated independent law firm. That structure lets us deliver something most insolvency firms structurally can’t: strategic, privileged, director-first advice across the full picture — tax, commercial, restructuring, and personal exposure — without the conflict of also being the appointed liquidator.
Our clients are SME owners and directors across Australia. Most run businesses turning over $1M to $20M. All of them came to us at a moment of pressure, and most left their first call surprised at how many real options they actually had.
What guides us
Four principles, applied to every matter.
01 — DIRECTOR-FIRST
Your interests come first
We’re retained by you, not your creditors. Every recommendation we make is judged against one question: does this protect you and your business?
02 — PROTECTED CONVERSATIONS
Privilege matters
Through our associated law firm, sensitive conversations can be conducted under legal professional privilege — something a liquidator cannot offer.
03 — ALL OPTIONS ON THE TABLE
Insolvency is a last resort
Payment plans, refinancing, SBR, restructuring, trade-out. We assess every realistic pathway before formal insolvency is even discussed.
04 — PLAIN ENGLISH
No jargon, no surprises
You’ll always know what we’re doing, what it costs, and what comes next. Fixed-fee quotes. Clear written advice. No bill shock.
