I would recommend David in a heart beat. He is a fantastic accountant that goes above and beyond.... He is open, honest, inclusive and understanding. For example, being dyslexic, I sometimes find it challenging to get my thoughts onto paper. This is really difficult when I am trying to ask a question about my finances but I’m not really sure of the technical words etc. David allows me to send him a voice message where I can blabber on trying to explain my question. He then listens to it in his own time and rings or emails me with the answer and solution! It makes my life so much easier and I am very grateful to have such a supportive, non-judgemental and inclusive accountant! Looking forward to continuing to work with David 💪read more
