  • I contacted Richard to help me write a will on a very short time scale. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating. He answered all my questions and made the whole process simple and efficient. I would highly recommend The Finance Zone.

    A complete expert. Nothing is too much trouble and he has sorted out my divorce by advising my solicitor to ensure I had a brilliant deal enabling me to be financially independent and secure my future. I have used him to challenge state pension underpayment and ensuring I have a good savings rate.

    Richard was recommended by a friend. He did a brilliant job helped with all the paperwork/forms and gave good advice. Richard kept me up to date with everything until complete & followed up with a call after. I would highly recommend him.

    Can't speak highly enough of Richard or recommend him enough. His handling of my mother's estate was efficient, professional, and courteous throughout. Probate was granted in the estimated date and this is thanks to Richard's expertise and foresight. I would not hesitate to deal with him again, though I also hope that isn't for a long time. Thanks again!

    Richard and the Financial Zone are the go to for anything related to finance. Pensions, mortgages, home care planning, estate planning and will planning. With over 35 years in the business there is no one better than these people. I could only recommend Richard Smith or The Finance Zone as the best you can get. A great guy with great knowledge, totally reliable and professional.

    This is the 2nd time I have used Richard's services, but this time for probate. The service I received was impeccable and swift. His advice was excellent and can not rate Richard highly enough. If there was a 6th star I would have added it.

    Richard did an exceptional job organising probate after our mother died in June. Throughout the entire process he was diligent, persistent, and consistently communicative. He made sure every detail was handled with care and professionalism, keeping us updated at every step and ensuring nothing fell through the cracks. His support made a difficult time much easier for my brother and me, and we’re truly grateful for his hard work and dedication. Highly recommended.
