Abacus Advice has been fortunate to have Ray Beard as legal counsel for many years, so it’s especially gratifying  that when Ray retired he chose Abacus Advice.

"Mike Hardy and I got to know each other through my work as a solicitor and over the years, I’ve come to respect his dedication and professionalism. To say that his advice has been life-changing is no exaggeration. As a result of his in-depth knowledge of the complexities of current pension arrangements, I’ve been able to switch from full-time to part-time practice ahead of the state retirement age. I now have the time to pursue my many other ambitions. I can genuinely recommend Mike’s clear, considered guidance, without reservation."

Wendy has a demanding roll at Speedy Plc, the market leader in Tools, Plant and Services solutions. It's a demanding role within a competitive environment. When she's not working, Wendy runs marathons, and enjoys foreign travel with her family. Somehow, she's found time to study for an MBA in Marketing. Her time is precious so Wendy decided to delegate the stewardship of her finances, and approached Abacus.

"Abacus Advice was recommended to me by a friend and I have never looked back. They have provided me with excellent advice and services on many occasions over a long period of time, and I have no hesitation in recommending them."

Peter Shaw is the Former Senior Manager at BNY Mellon.

 "I was recommended Abacus when I was looking for someone whom could help me plan for early retirement making best use of my pensions as well as other monies received in a way that would be tax efficient. Mike has always been very friendly and professional, he listens and finds good solutions. If anything I should have contacted Mike many years ago. I am in a fortunate position where because of redundancy and with Mikes help I have been able to take early retirement and am now living the life I thought I would never be able to. My thanks to Mike for his assistance in achieving this."
