I’m an independent financial planner based in the South West, with over ten years’ experience helping clients to achieve their financial and life goals. As a member of the Hartsfield Financial Planning team, my role is to improve my clients’ financial wellbeing. That could mean investment advice, retirement planning, help with pensions, Inheritance Tax planning or finding the best form of insurance to ensure your family finances are protected should life take an unexpected turn. As a holder of the AF7 Pension Transfer qualification, I am able to offer specialist knowledge and advice to clients considering transferring safeguarded benefits. I offer personalised advice in a friendly and approachable way and understand that gaining financial peace of mind is key to my clients. Whatever your goals, I take the time to find out what matters most to you, and tailor my advice and recommendations around your needs, values and goals. As an independent adviser, I am able to offer advice across the whole of the market and you can rest assured the advice you receive will only ever be based on what is in your best interests. At Hartsfield, we’ve built up expertise working with four main groups of clients: • Business owners • Professionals • Those planning for retirement • Those in retirement If you’re in one of these categories, I can help you to identify your financial goals, then provide the advice and support you need to achieve them. You are more than welcome to come to Bristol to our central offices at Temple Quay, to our lovely offices at Hartham Park in Corsham, or to Cambray Place in Cheltenham. Alternatively, I am able to come and meet you in your home if that is where you are more comfortable. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. I look forward to speaking with you.
