His advice is exteremely sound and I get comfort from the fact that he is completely reliable and trustworthy.

Our clients
Most of our clients are professionals who stay with us for a long time and we usually then act for the extended family or next generation. In one guise or another we have been tax advisers to many of our clients for over 15 years. Typically our clients have either a degree of complexity or wealth that drives them to engage a tax specialist as opposed to a general accountant or to risk doing the job themselves!
