After 37 years in financial planning, beyond retirement and investment product advice, I was unclear as to the value of Paul’s holistic approach to financial planning and my family’s wider needs.  However I come to value the comfort, reassurance and clarity of thinking that Paul provides.  This has given me confidence to make key retirement decisions aligned to my goals that are practical, properly thought through and informed and not based on emotion. I wholeheartedly endorse Paul’s holistic approach to financial planning and I have no hesitation in recommending Paul to others.

The initial and ongoing advice we have received from Paul has enabled us to achieve our dream of taking early retirement whilst maintaining our existing standard of living, something we did not believe would be possible without the need to work part-time.  He has also ensured this has been delivered in a tax efficient and sustainable way, enabling us to receive the regular income and capital lump sums required now and in the future, whilst hopefully protecting the value of our pensions, in real terms, for the future benefit of our children and grandchildren.

I approached Paul for advice in respect of my deferred occupational pension scheme benefits, following recommendations from three friends who have all used his services. I have found Paul to be a very competent Financial Adviser, who has utilised his technical knowledge and lifestyle financial planning skills to help me develop a structured retirement plan, in a tax efficient manner.

This has helped me to retire earlier than may have otherwise been the case; will enable me to enjoy the active lifestyle that I desire in the early stages of my retirement; whilst also maintaining sufficient funds to provide the necessary security in my later retirement years. Paul is very approachable, easily contactable, and I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Paul listens to needs, offers constructive advice and challenge to build a plan that is fit for purpose.

Our experience is that Paul is looking to help and guide his clients by listening and probing their needs to ensure that he has a full understanding and can build a plan that works.  We would highly recommend him.
