Report
Many thanks to Rob Ellis for recent work carried out with three clients of mine. In each case, Rob has been able to provide quality technical advice and guidance. Covering such issues as Personal Tax Returns, setting up new business accounts, calculating complex pension issues (inc carry forward), VAT and general advice on CGT. In the short period of time I have been working with Rob, I have built up excellent relationships with the clients I have been introduced to. This is down to their belief and trust in Rob, established due to the level of service he has provided them with. Due to this I would have no hesitation in referring clients to Rob
