Please provide a brief comment about your experience with Steve

Extremely helpful

Steve:

Thank you Sarah, it's good to know that our initial chat about your inheritance tax liability, and maybe the use of a deed of variation was useful. Please let me know if you would like any more detail on the life insurance quotes that I sent you.

Life hasn't been straightforward for you with Chris' poor health and dementia diagnosis, but hopefully your pensions and the value of your tax efficient investments should keep you in good stead should you need to pay for care in the future.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I met Steve 25 years also ago, through associated business connections.

How has Steve Pine helped you?

Massively, with helping me take over a company in dire financial straits. It then followed that we developed a mutual understanding, which eventually led Steve to advising me on my exit strategy when I decided to sell the main company.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes

What could they have done better?

None, as far as I am concerned.

Steve:

Thanks Steve for taking the time to leave such a positive review, it really is appreciated. Over the many years we have known each other, our relationship has always been very honest and its been a pleasure to assist with your business and now retirement planning. Long may it continue!
