3. Corr & Corr Chartered Accountants are a commercially astute
organisation with a personal, partner-led service aimed at
entrepreneurial, small & medium sized enterprises (SME’s), large
corporates and high-net worth individuals.
Our clients come from many different backgrounds and are
active in all branches of commerce and industry. Our reputation
is grounded in quality, delivering premium advisory services
efficiently.
Founded in 2004, the practice comprises 2 Partners and 12 Staff
supplying a range of services spanning Audit, Corporate Taxation,
Personal Taxation & Private Client Services, VAT & Payroll, Business
Recovery, Business Planning and Forensic Accounting in various
business sectors.
More recently Corr & Corr have specialised in Banking/Re-Banking,
Invest NI Funding, and Strategic Tax Planning incorporating
a number of areas such as Corporate Finance, and Mergers &
Acquisitions. Corr & Corr have a heavy focus on training and
developing staff, boasting a Chartered Tax advisor, two Audit
Managers, four trainee Chartered Accountants, and one technician.
Our mission is to serve our
clients with creativity,
enthusiasm, energy and vision.
Corr & Corr was formed by twins, Brendan & Paul Corr. The practice
grew by having an understanding of business and business
processes as opposed to viewing accountancy as merely an
annual compliance process. Paul & Brendan, brothers in business,
also have followed perfectly parallel career paths studying and
qualifying together, and now sharing the helm of their leading
accountancy firm. Their Coalisland based firm has grown rapidly
through straitened economic times, with business and professional
clients from all over Northern Ireland, GB & RoI, with a new office
recently opened in Cookstown.
All the time, providing the best advice, on time, every time but
never forgetting one thing, it’s the whole customer experience that
counts. Corr & Corr aspire to be the most outstanding in their field.
In a world that has faced its challenges, we have remained strong
due to the skill of our teams, our commitment to excellence and
never accepting that the value adding process has stopped.
A Partner Led Service!
Formed by twins, Brendan & Paul Corr.
