Client Services
We are happy to help you in every way we can in our professional capacity as
Independent Financial Advisors.
We can help you with Savings & Investments, Pension Schemes & Retirement Income, Wills & Trusts, Inheritance Tax Planning, and General Financial Advice.
You can choose simply to have one-off Advice on a pay-as-you-go basis; or you can enlist
us to manage any of the above Financial Services on an on-going basis.
In all cases, we don't charge you for our Initial Consultation; and thereafter our Services
will be on an agreed basis.

Advice & Service Costs
We believe that our charges are both fair and simple…
Simple because practically everything costs just 1% per Annum of the Capital Value of whatever we manage on your behalf.
Fair because we believe this is about the best price you’ll find anywhere for truly
Independent Financial Advice. Furthermore, it’s a mutually beneficial arrangement,
hopefully resulting in a win/win outcome.
There are some instances where the 1% rule doesn’t work for either party, such as a
one-off task, and in these cases we work on an Hourly Rate of £55 including VAT.
