I have used Porter Garland for a number of years now and have always received first class advice from Amanda and her team. Their knowledge is extensive and they have advised me on more complex issues surrounding property and capital gains tax to straightforward tax returns. Feedback is swift, clear and comes with a personal touch. I highly recommend their services.

I couldn't wish for a better accountant! I have been working with Thomas at Porter Garland for over 5 years and it has been a great experience from the start, with fantastic communications and service. I can't recommend them highly enough to anyone! Don't hesitate to get in touch.

Porter Garland have been my personal accountants for 20 years, and Thomas Pottinger has handled my end of year accounts, with great efficiency, and professionalism. I would highly recommend this firm.

Thomas and the team are a pleasure to work with. The team took the time to fully understand my business and personal position. The reassurance of having a professional and friendly team to respond to concerns, handle the payroll and deal with the drawing up and submission of the company accounts to HMRC and Companies House is vital for my business. I look forward to working with Thomas and the team for many more years.

As executor of my late parents' estates I needed help and advice to settle their tax affairs and to submit returns for the administration period. Porter Garland were an obvious choice of professional firm as they had looked after my Dad's affairs for many years and he always had something good to say about them. At my initial meeting with Amanda I was put at my ease and she provided a great deal of expert sound advice on the way forward. Nikki took up the case from that point and provided a great service with the many calculations and final submission, resulting in a speedy conclusion with HMRC. Overall everyone at the firm was a pleasure to deal with at a difficult time for our family.

I started the company (a:cet LTD) back in May 2001, when I met and commissioned a local Accounting Firm to look after the company accounts, then a year later, I changed to another Accounting Firm, by the end of the 2nd year, I was still disappointed with the mistakes and lack of knowledge about our area of business and the lack of enthusiasm (general disinterest in our success, no recommendations, no ideas, etc. ) and started to think that maybe all the Accounting Firms / Consultancies do is just to crunch the numbers for the Year-Ends and report to HMRC and show no interest in us and our business!?.How wrong was I.!?.without the doubt, the day when Amanda Williams was recommended to us (through a fellow entrepreneur), was one the most luckiest days in our company history.

I met with her and she completely took over our Company Accounts, with genuine enthusiasm and interest in our success. She is super efficient, intelligent and super helpful, she is exceptionally knowledgeable in her area of business, an experts in all aspects of Accounts, Businesses and Accounting, she is always up-to-date with the latest legislations, how they relate to us, as well as what is new in our area of business.

In addition to all her Business and Accounting acumens, she is 'truly' a kind, very fair, noble, honest person - a trusting friend for life! We have had the good fortune and the pleasure of knowing and working with Amanda Williams since 2003 and we just can not imagine our company and business life without her and her invaluable input. Amanda's Accounting Firm (Porter Garland Chartered Accountants) is highly recommended to any business, of any size, for the excellent work they do - for always delivering on time, no mistakes, always up-to-date, always delivered with genuine interest in our business and the success of our company.

We have used the services of Porter Garland from the very start of Bartlett Davis Communications, over eleven years ago. From payroll through tax returns to end of year advice we have received first class service, solid advice and consistent, friendly, business support. We would readily recommend the services of Porter Garland.

Since starting my business 8 years ago, working with Porter Garland has been a most rewarding experience. They appreciate that every business is different and everyone has their own specific needs. The work they carry out so efficiently (and the money they save me) takes the weight off my shoulders and enables me to concentrate on developing my business and growing profit. I look forward to this continuing for many years to come.
