Joel Courts

Partner

I have over a decade’s experience working closely with businesses of all sizes, from small partnerships to large international groups across a vast range of sectors, such as real estate, technology, fine art, recruitment and legal.

My main role is to fine tune and improve my clients’ businesses from a financial point of view. This usually means helping them operate in the most tax-efficient way, and often looking for improvements they can make in their accounting software.

I work with legal firms, helping them to navigate the Solicitor’s Accounting Rules (SAR), as well as dealing with owner-managed businesses.

I oversee HW Fisher’s small business department, focusing on the systems, processes and wholesale software we use to ensure that, as a firm, we are always improving processes.

I joined HW Fisher as a trainee in 2006 and made partner in 2017.

I was appointed a trustee of The Jewish Community Secondary School Trust in February 2019

Outside of work I have a wife and 2 young boys (7 and 10) who have a lot of energy! I try to get some exercise in when I can, either football in the back garden with the boys or a 6am session in the gym.
