For over 40 years, VLL Partners has delivered expert advisory and proactive accounting services tailored to the needs of businesses and individuals across Sydney. From our beginnings in North Shore Sydney to becoming a respected name in tax and business advice, our firm has always focused on building long-term relationships and delivering personalised, impactful solutions that help our clients succeed.
Led by four dedicated partners, including two founding members with decades of experience and two newer directors bringing fresh perspectives, we offer the perfect balance of expertise and innovation.
We work collaboratively to address the unique challenges our clients face, whether they are managing rapid growth, navigating tax complexities, or planning for the future.
VLL Partners began in 1983 when Hector Vieira opened the firm’s northern Sydney office. Just three years later, he was joined by Jan Lech, who became a partner in 1989. Together, Hector and Jan established a practice built on trust, integrity, and delivering exceptional service to their clients.
Over the years, the firm has grown significantly, adding new team members and expanding our expertise to meet the evolving needs of businesses and individuals. While much has changed since those early days, our commitment to providing personalised, high-quality accounting and advisory services has remained steadfast.
Today, VLL Partners is proud to continue the legacy of our founders while embracing the future. With a strong foundation of over 40 years of experience, we remain dedicated to supporting our clients with tailored advice and a deep understanding of their unique challenges.
In 2024, VLL Partners welcomed Marko Sladakovic and Patrick Chapman as directors, bringing a new energy and modern approach to the firm. Our leadership team, with founding partners Hector Vieira and Jan Lech, blends decades of experience with a deep understanding of today’s fast-paced business environment.
This combination of seasoned expertise and fresh perspectives allows us to deliver advice that is both practical and forward-thinking. Our new directors are particularly attuned to the challenges faced by today’s business owners, offering innovative solutions that resonate with a modern client base to help them navigate an often turbulent economic landscape.
Whether helping clients optimise tax strategies, plan for succession, or navigate complex business structures, our directors combine the best of both worlds. Their dynamic leadership ensures our clients benefit from proven strategies backed by fresh ideas, driving meaningful outcomes across the board.
