Client Testimonials

I contacted Armstrong Watson as I had some tax implications that i needed to have a further understanding of. These tax implications were complex, due to the nature in which a property holding company I was a shareholder in, was established. A number of my fellow shareholders also attended the meeting, where we received beneficial advice on our Capital Gains Tax planning in preparation for the sale of the company. The advice received significantly helped the business and shareholders effectively plan our sale from a tax efficient perspective, ensuring that we fully understood the process involved.

Additionally, we also received further advice from Lorraine on loan interest relief payments, where she acted on our behalf to recover these substantial monies.

As a result of the clear, precise and beneficial advice, my wife and I will continue to use the services of Armstrong Watson.

Starting a company from scratch is daunting enough and just like me, many people are often most concerned and intimidated about the legal, tax and accounting aspects of their new venture. After just one visit with Armstrong Watson, John Booth was able to put my mind at rest and deliver all the services and help I would need, at great rates and with a team of willing and helpful people behind him. Nothing is too much trouble, they are patient, knowledgeable and were able to put the right processes in place in no time, taking away all the painful aspects like VAT Registration, as well as payroll and bookkeeping administration. As an SME we rely heavily on the support of people who have the right expertise and experience to hold our hands through the business accounting process and our dealings with Armstrong Watson have always been reassuringly professional.

Just a quick note to thank you for your ongoing support. I have always appreciated your straightforward, relevant, trustworthy and to the point advice drawn from your broad industry specific and in-depth understanding of my business and personal financial affairs.

Coupled with the consistently friendly and helpful face to face contact I have experienced throughout the partnership, I would strongly recommend Armstrong Watson to anyone seeking a trusted financial advisor.

I have retired from my self-employed consultancy business and had my final meeting today with Tony to wind everything up. I just wanted you know how much I have appreciated Armstrong Watson's exceptional services over the past 10 years. Tony has been absolutely brilliant supporting my business and explaining carefully every aspect of the financial implications of self-employment. His friendly, optimistic personality has been a bonus in addition to his efficiency and superb organisational skills. I have always been kept well informed about budget changes and any new requirements on a regular basis.

Once again many thanks to you and all of your colleagues in Hexham who have been a tremendous help and a credit to your company because they take a genuine interest in their clients.
