Chartered since 1989, I now have over 20 years in local practice, but the diverse nature of issues that we deal with means that no two days are the same. Some of the scrapes that businesses find themselves in never ceases to amaze me. Just when you think that you’ve seen it all …….........

Unbelievably the burden of red tape continues to strangle small business, despite assurances from Government to the contrary. I see part of our job as steering our clients through the minefield – it’s our bread and butter work.

New challenges continue to face us. Changes in legislation, economic factors, competition, and personality issues within businesses. We are often a counsellor or mediator, and anything other than accountant, but that is indicative of the close relationships that we build with our  clients.

Team Members come and go over the years, but I am excited by the breadth of experience and youthful exuberance within the current personnel. As general practitioners, we have most of the bases covered, and we have a support network to fall back on in the rare occasion that a second opinion is prudent. I genuinely believe that we provide a top class package to our clients, and that we are very good at what we do.
