Client Testimonials

Steve Roberts and James Fry from Armstrong Watson have been my accountants for five years. I find them both very knowledgable in all aspects of the accounting for my dental practice and am appreciative of their patience when explaining the different options open to me .

I would heartily recommend them to any of my dental/medical colleagues.

Working with Andrew is part confessional, part business coach and part music and sports chat! With accountancy thrown in for good measure....always a pleasure! 

Eliot Lowe, Managing Director, All About Media Limited

The team at Armstrong Watson combine technical ability, years of experience and a deep understanding of the business to add real value. The level of personal but professional service we get from Rohan Day has led to a strong partnership developing.

Rohan has acted for us for approximately 15 years and I consider him to be a key business partner and trusted advisor.

Stephen Brunton, Managing Director, Sematic UK Limited

Since starting our business in 2011 Armstrong Watson helped us through some difficult times, were always there to help and advise and now four years on we have a great business relationship they take the pressure off and we know they are just a phone call away should we need them. They offer help support and we are currently training with them for a new accounts system.

Outpace are innovative packaging specialists based in Teesside.

Ever since the Patent Box tax relief was first introduced Steven Holmes and I have worked together to make sure that Outpace made the most of this tax relief. Steven worked hard to get to grips with all of the new legislation and how this affected my business. This has resulted in a significant corporation tax saving for my business.

I would recommend Steven to others companies trying to get to grips with the complexities of Patent Box.

Tim Hutchinson, Director, Outspace Limited

I have worked with Matt, Helen, Andrew and Steven at Armstrong Watson over the past three years and it has been a refreshing experience for all involved at Phoenix. There is a real feeling that the team believe in our business and want to help us to succeed. Their approach is collaborative, thorough and friendly and as a result it feels like we are working to the same goals. Their advice is swift and hugely helpful and no problem appears too great for them to deal with. The team at Armstrong Watson have been a real contributing factor in the growth of our business and have assisted our ability to make the necessary changes as the business expands. I would thoroughly recommend Matt and his team to any business seeking a proactive audit and tax team.

Richard Williams, Finance Director, Phoenix

In December 2014, at a meeting held in the offices of our Canadian Accountants, Jill Guthrie and Scott Griffin, of The Renaissance Group, Chartered Accountants, it was decided that we needed to find another accounting firm in Scotland to represent us with our affairs.

Our Canadian Accountants has met representatives of Armstrong Watson at a seminar of an association they were both members of and recommended, after they had spoken to your people, that we meet with them upon our return to Scotland. An appointment was set up to meet with Scott McIver.

Just before Christmas we went to your Dumfries office to meet with Scott and present him with our tax situation. Scott immediately impressed us with his friendly and approachable manner. He was fully prepared for our meeting, knew the facts as presented to him by Jill Guthrie and he dealt with out situation in a professional and knwledgable fashion. He prepared a timetable to conclude out tax issues, monitored the situation carefully and followed up with us appropriately.

We also found the staff at Armstrong Watson to be friendly and welcoming.

We look forward to a continued relationship with your firm.

To our valued colleagues at Armstrong Watson, Members MSI Global Alliance.

Recently we at The Renaissance Group Chartered Accountants referred two of our valued long time Canadian clients to Armstrong Watson, members of the MSI Global Alliance. Our clients had some UK filing needs and a lot of concerns in this regard. Our clients were thrilled with the service provided by Armstrong Watson and in particular the helpful proactive care from Scott McIver. They contacted us right after the first meeting and again after the services were complete to express their complete confidence and more importantly, how comfortable they felt with the advice they were getting and felt that someone really cared! From the Renaissance Group perspective, I found Armstrong Watson to be effective, efficient and great team players, thereby making us hero’s for our client.

Thank you to Scott and all the team at Armstrong Watson.

Jill Guthrie, CA, The Renaissance Group Chartered Accountants Ltd

We are a small family firm and look to our accountants as a lot more than just running the numbers. We moved to Armstrong Watson a couple of years ago and have since been working closely with Scott McIver, Nicola Zambonini and Douglas Russell. We have been delighted with the personal and friendly way business is done perfectly suited to our informal family style of business. We have also been impressed by the scope of Armstrong Watson as a company and complex matters of long term planning have been dealt  with in a professional and engaged way. We believe business should be enjoyable as well as profitable and our team at Armstrong Watson seem to share these values!

I always find the advice offered by the Armstrong Watson Tax Team to be pragmatic and helpful. The depth of their knowledge impresses, and unlike many advisers, they have the ability to explain their advice to me in language that I can actually understand!
