About us
We are situated in the heart of rural Dorset but we work with clients throughout Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire and within Europe.
We provide a service which is friendly, approachable and professional. We are forward thinking making use of today’s technology, and a fundamental principle of our practice is the “team ” approach. We believe that no one person is able to be an expert in all aspects of our profession and each of our advisers has his own specialisms. Where we do not have the in-house expertise we need, we liaise and work with other professionals in their chosen fields.
