Not Just A Faceless Accountancy Firm
JP Rata are a friendly accountancy firm based in Taunton, Somerset. Our aim is to redefine what businesses expect from their accountants.
Too many find their accountancy spend is a valueless overhead rather than a powerful tool to help grow their business. We want to see business owners demand more.
Redefining Accounting
We’re not a traditional accountancy firm. We’re not happy with ‘do the same as last year’. We’re building a service that gives modern businesses owners the help they need. We want you to get the most value possible from your accountant and we are constantly looking for new ways to do it.

Efficient Compliance
These accounts are the ones that are used to calculate your income taxes. They are the ones that end up in the public domain; they can shape how the world perceives your business.
Being aware of this, we partner with our clients throughout the year to prepare them for year-end. Planning ahead gives you more control over how your accounts will look and what you will pay in tax.
