Testimonials
Don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our clients have to say:
“I honestly can’t recommend Liz and Stanley Finance enough! My last accountant let me down badly and left my business accounts in a bit of a mess. It was completely stressing me out, but Liz was amazing. We talked, she calmed me down (the chocolate helped), I let her work her magic on my accounts, and all is well in the world again. She says she takes the fear out of finance and accounts, and she isn’t kidding. No question is treated as a silly question, or as a ‘Why don’t you know that?’ kind of scenario. If you need a friendly accountant – one who takes the time to explain things to you in a way that’s easy to understand as a non-accountant way, then Stanley Finance is the way to go! ” – Kate Lloyd, Poppy Marketing.
“Wonderful, personable service from Elizabeth Stanley who makes herself very accessible for queries. The process was made very clear and executed promptly. Will definitely use this service again.” – Anne McTiernan, Small Business Owner.
