Extracts from client testimonials :

Managing director - £2m turnover company

"Shortly after starting our business 16 years ago, we took a decision to find a firm of local accountants which were also qualified to carry out our annual audit. David Hancock & Co ticked all the right boxes, and I am happy to say they have provided us with excellent service as our business has grown over the years. All dealings have been conducted in a thoroughly professional manner, and they are always on hand at short notice to provide whatever support necessary.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!"

Solicitor £1M+ turnover

This is a verbatim email extract from a Solicitor at the conclusion of a new Reporting Accountant assignment under the Solicitors Accounts Rules, having just taken over from another firm of Accountants:

“My team have been impressed with your firm's professionalism in dealing with the audit.  Your recommendations are noted and accepted.  We shall cascade to all relevant individuals at our next practice support meeting.”

Director / shareholder - small limited company

"As an self-employed small business director with both business and personal tax affairs to manage, I have struggled hard to find an accountancy firm that can:

• LISTEN to what I need
• UNDERTAND the specific financial aims, objectives, and constraints that are important to me
• PRESCRIBE and HELP ADMINISTER a simple, appropriate, tailored and well-supported solution

However, I'm pleased to report that I've found all the above and more with David Hancock and Co. David has been exemplary in listening and quickly assimilating my requests and requirements into a package that works for me. Further, David delivers his service with a high level of personal care, at a very competitive price, and with an 'astoundingly rational' billing approach based on a simple monthly retainer. Most of all David provides me with the 'X-Factor' ingredients of Clarity and Confidence - total clarity on my tax position and full confidence that I comply with legislation in the most efficient way possible.

Having full experience of David Hancock and Co in both a business and personal tax affairs, I am very happy to make the highest possible recommendation."

Director/shareholder - small limited company

"David has handled my company’s payroll, tax and accountancy matters for 11 years now. Not only is his work very professional and of the highest standards, it is delivered with an efficiency that is second to none. His friendly and knowledgeable advice over the years has been a great help. I?d thoroughly recommend him without hesitation."

Director/shareholder - small limited company

"David Hancock has been my accountant since 1992 when I formed my own company. He gave me some useful information to review so that I could get started and has provided me with a very professional level of advice and service ever since."

Director/shareholder - small limited company

"As the owner of a newly created construction company I needed an accountant for the year end. After contacting David, we met briefly for an introductory meeting.

Director/shareholder - small limited company

"As the owner of a small Limited Company I came to David following some changes in tax legislation that required me to entirely rethink and re-plan how I ran my operation. David's assistance was invaluable, and his company offering matched the needs most important to be - by being fast, effective, and competitively priced. I continue to be ?routinely surprised? by the speed at which David turns round the requests I make. The level of personal service I receive through David Hancock and Company company is truly outstanding."
