Who we are
We’ve been around a while. Everyone in Saintfield knows where we are.
The practice was formed in 1953. Our offices sit at the bottom of Main Street, on the Crossgar Road, in a lovely old listed building: the Old Bank House.
What makes us different? For a start, we listen. We find out what you need from us and build the service around that. Every client is an individual and gets a bespoke service from the minute they walk through the door. Some people come to us in financial difficulty, others run large, successful businesses, and each needs different advice. We also have additional experts available for legal, financial and taxation advice.
