AI Tax Research for Perth Practices

    Perth firms operate across a unique resources-driven economy, with specialised tax and legal needs around mining, royalties, and cross-border structuring.

    Federal tax law is the same in Perth as anywhere in Australia, but the questions Perth practitioners field are not: WA payroll tax and land tax thresholds administered by RevenueWA, stamp duty on WA transactions, and the interaction of those state regimes with federal CGT, GST and Division 7A positions. Cassandra cites the federal provision and flags where a WA instrument also applies.

    Cassandra Research is an Australian-registered company (ABN 70 659 258 367). Every output is a research draft for professional review — it is not advice.

    The Problems Professionals Face

    Partner

    Client queries that cross federal and WA regimes take hours to research across ATO and RevenueWA material

    → Cassandra returns the federal position with section citations and flags the state instrument to check

    Manager

    Generic AI tools invent ITAA section numbers and ATO ruling references

    → Use source references in the draft as a starting point, then verify the text and its relevance

    Senior

    Research memos drafted from scratch for every Division 7A, trust distribution or CGT concession question

    → Structured, cited drafts ready for partner review and client communication

    Sole practitioner

    Competing with larger Perth firms on research depth without their research budget

    → Per-seat pricing that gives an independent practice the same engine a mid-tier uses

    Why Perth Firms Shouldn't Rely on Generic AI

    • AI tools can generate incorrect section numbers and non-existent authorities
    • Check that any AI answer identifies the correct Act, provision and applicable version
    • Check coverage of WA instruments and decisions of the Supreme Court of Western Australia before relying on an answer
    • Using unverifiable AI outputs in professional work creates real exposure under the TPB Code of Professional Conduct and the Legal Profession Uniform Law

    • Australian tax and legal research workflows with source checking
    • Research drafts can include references to legislation, ATO guidance and decisions for verification
    • Designed for professional review — outputs structured for verification

    Practising in Perth, WA

    Perth's professional community is concentrated around St Georges Terrace, Elizabeth Quay and West Perth, and organised through the Law Society of Western Australia, the WA Bar Association and the WA divisions of CA ANZ and CPA Australia. Practitioners there work with the same federal Acts as the rest of the country, plus the WA regimes administered by RevenueWA and the case law of the Supreme Court of Western Australia, the WA Court of Appeal and the Federal Court's WA Registry.

    Cassandra reflects that layering: it cites the federal provision first, surfaces the WA instrument where one applies, and leaves the judgement — and the sign-off — with the practitioner.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Cassandra's core coverage is federal — ITAA 1997/1936, the GST Act 1999, FBTAA and the SIS Act. It flags where a WA regime administered by RevenueWA (payroll tax, land tax, duties) also bears on a question so you can check the state position directly.
