I specialise in the following advice services:

Business Protection Planning

The importance of business protection is often overlooked but is key to helping business owners plan for the unexpected.

Equity Release

Equity release is a way for homeowners over the age of 55 to release value from their home in the form of cash without having to sell or move.

Investment & Wealth Management

Creating, growing, and then maintaining wealth is key to successful financial planning and should be part of a longer-term investment strategy.

Later Life & Estate Planning

We spend a lifetime building our wealth, so it’s important to find the most effective way to protect your assets, in order for you to pass them on to those you love as efficiently as possible.

Lifetime Financial Planning

Through the use of sophisticated cash flow modelling techniques and by applying various inflation, interest rate and growth assumption we can plan how to get you where you want to be. The use of cashflow modelling is becoming the cornerstone of effective lifetime planning.

Mortgage Planning

Securing the right mortgage can make the difference between a property that becomes a happy and secure family home and one that ends up as a financial burden.

Pension & Retirement Planning

When you think about the future, what does your retirement look like to you? An important question which we can help you answer.

Personal Protection

Talking about illness, disability or death is never an easy conversation to have but protecting against the unexpected will help with financial security and ensure your family can cope should the worst happen.

Wills & Power of Attorney

Making a Will is essential to ensuring that your wealth benefits those whom you choose and is not taken by taxation, unnecessary legal costs and beneficiaries chosen by the law.

Workplace Pensions

As an employer, you must auto-enrol certain staff into a workplace pension scheme and contribute towards it in order to meet legislative obligations.
