Nothing we can think of but, time will tell.

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

Getting a divorce, needed to get to grips with what I have in place as regards pensions and insurance for my children should I die.

How has James Edge helped you?

Advised on an affordable insurance policy. Advised on finding out what income I would receive from my pensions. Looked into the possibility of putting pensions in the same pot. Decided which pension would be best to keep using if I go back to work.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, I feel more in control of my finances. More aware of what I need to do in the next 10 years. Happy that if anything bad should happen to me, my children will have some financial security.

What could they have done better?

Nothing. It was great to get this sorted during Covid lockdown, over the phone/emails.

James:

Thank you for your review Carol. Very kind of you. All the best. James
