About Callaghans Accountants

Accounting and financial planning in Canberra

Callaghans is an accounting and financial planning practice in Belconnen, Canberra. It has served the Canberra area since first opening its doors in 1974, and it describes itself as a long-established network of approachable specialists who take a genuine interest in each client's situation.

Individual tax and planning

The practice prepares tax returns and advises on tax planning, helping individuals understand their return and make decisions that protect their position. Its approach is to build plans with achievable targets, so that clients can see how their finances fit together over time and where their opportunities lie.

Business services and self-managed super

For business owners, the practice offers accounting and commercial advice aimed at growth, with a focus on sound knowledge and strong partnerships. It also sets up and manages self-managed superannuation funds, shaped around a client's retirement goals and designed to give peace of mind for the years ahead.

Specialists in each field

The firm says it does not rely on generalists. It has a team of more than twenty professionals, each expert in a particular area, who work together on each client's file. Its partners say the most expensive advice is poor advice, and the firm presents careful, specialist guidance as its answer to that risk.

Long relationships across generations

The practice describes its relationships with clients as long lasting, often spanning generations within the same family. It presents this as the result of working together at each stage of a client's life, and it says the larger team gives it the capacity to add value while the size of the practice keeps personal contact close. Clients can also pay their invoices online through a payment gateway.
