What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I had to leave my last financial adviser urgently due to unprofessional conduct. A close friend recommended me to his financial adviser who is a colleague of Liam's. This colleague was not taking on new clients so recommended Liam.
How has Liam Bray helped you?
Since I met Liam, I have been going through a divorce. He has helped me by commenting on my investment portfolio and helping me to draw income from my pension fund. As soon as my divorce is completed, Liam will be helping me to invest my financial settlement which I am looking forward to.

Yes. Very much

Please provide a brief comment about your experience with Liam
Liam is incredibly professional, clear and considerate with his approach. He took great care with his explanation of his services and guidance whilst taking the time to elaborate on areas that I didn’t fully understand. I instantly felt comfortable talking about my finances and I look forward to working with Liam in the future.

I have been a client of HFL previously Benson McGarvey for 30+ years. HFL was acquired by ONE FOUR NINE. I have had nothing but reliable and pro-active service throughout this time.
How has Liam Bray helped you?
Liam has been my adviser for the past 2 years and has supplied a seamless service to date. I hope we can continue with the personal support and advice as we move forward.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
The current performance is showing results from previous investment strategy, a recent review of this strategy will hopefully take results further and to a new level.
What could they have done better?
I have been satisfied with the input and advice given over the years, the process has been timely and thorough with emphasis on my personal view on risk.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
Three years ago, I founded my own enterprise and was in need of assistance to establish a pension plan with a reliable, long-term financial partner. As my business expands and my financial circumstances evolve, I intend to progressively refine this plan. Collaborating with Liam has been immensely beneficial, as he consistently contributes both expertise and a positive dynamism to every interaction.
How has Liam Bray helped you?
Liam has consistently been available, demonstrating initiative by reaching out proactively and accommodating meetings in person or via video call to support my needs flexibly. I particularly appreciate his proactive advice across all financial matters, not limited to pensions, as I am keen to explore new opportunities within his scope of expertise. Collaborating with a young, driven professional is invigorating, and as a business owner of a comparable age, I find his approach both comforting and relatable.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
As a client for just 12 months, it is premature to provide detailed feedback at this stage. Our forthcoming annual review will offer a more comprehensive understanding, at which point I anticipate gaining deeper insights.
What could they have done better?
Given that we are in the preliminary phase of our engagement with HFL, it is challenging to provide a definitive response at this juncture; currently, there are no specific issues or concerns that come to mind.
