Go EO are a firm of Chartered Tax Advisers with legal support built into our process. We handle the full EOT transaction. No separate law firm needed, no inflated costs, no unnecessary complexity.
Chris Maslin founded Go EO, after selling his own accountancy firm to an Employee Ownership Trust. That experience gave him something most EOT advisers don't have: a founder's perspective on what it actually feels like to hand over your business.
We’re a small, hands-on team that works efficiently to make sure your transaction is straightforward and speedy.
The credentials behind the advice
Go EO brings together all the expertise needed to deal with the different elements of the EOT transaction. The combination of tax expertise, legal understanding and hands-on EOT experience means we can seamlessly guide you through the transaction process.
