What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Tim had been recommended to me by a work colleague when I was initially looking to combine my existing private work pensions into one fund and adjust contributions, as well as advise into adjustments to the investment level.

How has Tim Mottram helped you?

From the first meeting Tim has been a fantastic support, and has remained so every step of the way. He showed genuine interest not only in my finances but in me as a person, asked a lot of relevant questions about what I was looking for and my long-term plans. He gave expert advise on the best way to handle the pension funds and the level of risk would be best suited for investments, as well as provided general financial advise. I felt in the best of hands at all times, and as an added bonus Tim is an incredibly lovely person who's a joy to be around.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, Tim helped me with what I initially wanted to do, and beyond that advised on the best approach to achieve maximum benefits from my pensions long-term. As someone who has very little financial acumen I was very grateful for his guidance, and I'm very happy with the results.

What could they have done better?

Nothing I could think of, it all went great!

Tim has been really thorough and advised us on what policy to take, but giving us options with all the information so we can make a decision.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

We recently acquired another company and recognized the importance of having key person insurance in place to protect our business in the event of unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, I was seeking to review my personal life insurance and critical illness cover. My health history is somewhat complex, and I was apprehensive about finding an advisor who would understand my needs and provide non-judgmental support.

How has Tim Mottram helped you?

Tim's empathy and understanding immediately put me at ease. He took the time to thoroughly understand my personal and business circumstances, and he patiently explained the different insurance options available. He never made me feel rushed or pressured, and he answered all my questions with clarity and expertise. Tim's ability to connect on a personal level, while maintaining a high degree of professionalism, was invaluable. He made a potentially daunting process feel manageable and even enjoyable. He found solutions that perfectly fit my needs, and he guided me through the application process with efficiency and care.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely. Thanks to Tim's guidance and expertise, we now have comprehensive key person insurance in place for our business, providing peace of mind and financial security. I also have the personal insurance coverage I need, tailored to my specific health circumstances. Tim exceeded my expectations, and I have complete confidence in his ongoing support and advice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tim to anyone seeking a financial advisor who is not only knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely cares about his clients' well-being. He has a true gift for making the complex world of finance and insurance approachable and understandable, and he goes above and beyond to ensure his clients feel heard and supported.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Recently bought in to business and found that during my varied business career I had amassed a number of pensions which were mostly frozen. As a result, I wanted to plan for the future and this was a good starting point.

How has Tim Mottram helped you?

He has helped me find the best pension that I have and is now in the process of moving my others pensions in to that one to give me the best chance of having the best retirement I can get. He has also explained in details about my pensions and what is required to maximise my fund.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

All still in process but if all goes to plan this would be the best decision I have made in a long time.

What could they have done better?
