Terry Friday, a partner here, has been doing both our company accounts and my personal tax return for the last 4 years now and I really couldn't recommend him and the rest of the team highly enough. They also do our payroll, VAT returns and any other HMRC related work, and as well as being extremely helpful and efficient they are also all a pleasure to work with, each and every one.

I have been a client of Vernon Associates for around 5 years with multiple companies. Before Vernon, I used various other accounting firms so have a good comparison of the service that they give. The service that I have received from Terry and the team at Vernon Associates is outstanding. Their Team is just superb, Highly professional, highly knowledgeable in every area of accounting, tax and finance.

They have given me fantastic financial advice over the years. I have so much trust in this firm as I know that they always have my best interests at heart and have literally saved me thousands of pounds. I cannot recommend them enough.

Having had a number of business with Vernon's over 20 years I can't say a bad word about them, both Clive and now James have been brilliant and are always on hand to give both professional and private advice, 10 out of 10 isn't good enough for the service we have received over the years. Wishing them all the best for the future and looking forward to another 20 years with them!
