I am thoroughly impressed with your document signing solution! I just signed the end-of-year documents, and the process was as smooth as could be. Your IT department or solution provider deserves high praise for implementing such an efficient system. As someone with extensive experience in this field, I can confidently say that many large organisations don't come close to this level of seamless, end-to-end capability!

I would highly recommend Steven at Brearley & Co Accountants. On Steven’s advice we moved to Quickbooks and it was a brilliant decision. He has helped to streamline our accounting so that it now runs much more efficiently. Nothing is ever too much trouble, even if the question is a rather minor one. He is always at the end of the phone or email if any advice is needed and responds to queries very quickly. Steven delivers a friendly, personal and professional service and his knowledge of Quickbooks is second to none. I cannot recommend Steven highly enough; he is an excellent accountant!

'In starting a business from scratch you naturally have a lot of concerns. Since day one approximately 3.5 years ago, Lee, Kelsea and the wider team at Brearley have provided us with their expertise and support to help us navigate the (successful) growth of our business. What sets them apart for us is their flexibility and understanding of our requirements. We are most definitely not their biggest client but it doesn't feel like that. Oh, and they're lovely people too.
