Alex Pickles
Financial Planner
“I am sincerely grateful for the professional manner in which Alex has dealt with my financial situation throughout and following my retirement process. He has always been sincere, honest and extremely personable in all our dealings and any query I have presented him with has been dealt with in a positive and understanding manner. During such a significant life-change, it has been extremely reassuring to know that his expert advice was readily available.”

Chris Taylor
Financial Planner
"I had heard several stories from friends and colleagues of pushy IFAs who spouted jargon at high speed, their overriding purpose being that to sell expensive products, whether or not they were in the best interest of that particular client. I have found Chris over the last ten years to be the exact opposite. Not only does he always have excellent current knowledge of financial investments and likely future developments, but also he puts it across very carefully, at a suitable pace, and in language which is easily understood. He inspired me to take a keen interest in our assembling a bespoke portfolio, and he has advised me with patience, approachability throughout the year between our face to face appointments, and understanding of my personal situation, ever since."
Mr R. Williams
Carl Reitel
Financial Planner
“We are so pleased with the work that Carl has done for us and he is always ready to lend a hand when we have a query; usually because we don’t understand something! Looking forward to his help in the future as we progress to retirement . ”
Mr P. and Mrs F. Dray
David Cabrera

Gary McKenzie
Financial Planner

Financial Planner
