Meridian Practices & Jurisdictions

The Transatlantic Model
Businesses increasingly operate across borders, but the accounting industry mostly still doesn't. A UK founder trading with US clients — or a US founder setting up an entity in the UK — typically ends up juggling two accountants working from two different systems, on two different timelines, who never coordinate.
We built Meridian to be the alternative: one firm, one standard of work, whether your business is purely domestic or trades across the Atlantic. We stay a lean, founder-led practice by design — when you reach out, you speak directly with the team doing the work.
We show you the number behind the number — the commercial driver, not just the raw total on your P&L or management accounts.
Companies House, HMRC, IRS, state, and VAT deadlines are flagged at least three weeks out — not the week they are due.
Compliance is the floor of what we do, not the ceiling. We turn your numbers into clear dividend, salary, and tax-timing decisions.
If you trade with the US or UK, your accounts are handled by one firm under one roof — not two disconnected firms that have never spoken.
We handle dual-entity structures, US-UK Double Taxation Treaty planning, Form 1040-NR, and cross-border payroll.
How It Works
Whether you are working with our US team or UK practice, onboarding and monthly delivery follow a clear four-step schedule.
A free 20-minute call to understand your entity structure, current books, filing obligations, and software stack.
We set up your chart of accounts, bank feeds, and a filing calendar covering HMRC, Companies House, IRS, and state deadlines.
Monthly bookkeeping and scheduled compliance on a fixed schedule you can set a watch to — no deadline scrambles.
A standing check-in that turns your numbers into proactive business decisions — salary vs. dividends, tax timing, and cash flow.
Expansion Pipeline
As our clients expand globally, we are establishing dedicated practices in additional common-law jurisdictions.
Building a Canadian practice with the same technical depth and commercial judgement we bring to the US and UK.
Australian practice on the horizon — bringing Meridian's integrated cloud-native approach to the APAC region.
Tell us about your business and we'll show you how Meridian can move it forward — in the US, the UK, or across borders.
