Report
We have had many years of searching for the right accounting firm who could best fit our needs. We've wasted huge amounts of money on unnecessary tax and accountants fees. We feel we've finally found a firm who know exactly what they are doing and have our best interests at heart. We Highly recommend Lesser & Co to anyone who is looking for a friendly, professional and extremely high quality service.

We have been with Lesser & Co since the day our company was established and would not be where we are without their help and support. A particular thanks to Karen Crossdale who has consistently been an invaluable source of guidance and support. We would be completely lost without her!

Keith has been my accountant for over 3 years and he has always been on hand to answer any questions quickly and offer me the best solutions for my business. Throughout Covid he went out of his way to keep all his customers updated of the different financial help available which was very useful. I'm currently in the process of exploring new options for my business and Keith has been very helpful, once again coming back to me very quickly with advice and suggestions! Can't fault the service from the whole team and would recommend to anyone looking for an approachable and reliable accountant.
