Fees

How we charge for financial advice

Fees are agreed in writing after a free discovery call. Most work is priced as a fixed engagement rather than an open-ended hourly meter.

Engagement Indicative fee
Discovery call (30–40 minutes) No charge
Comprehensive Retirement Planning Review From £1,850
Pension transfer / consolidation advice Quoted after scheme review
Protection & family cover review Advice fee; commission offset disclosed where used
Inheritance & later-life planning overview From £950
Annual light review (existing clients) From £450

What moves a quote up or down

  • Number of pension schemes and whether safeguarded benefits apply
  • Whether we must obtain CETVs or chase historic providers
  • Joint advice for couples with intertwined estates
  • Home visits outside our usual travel radius
  • Implementation support after the recommendation meeting

Payment

Invoices are typically split: a portion on instruction and the balance on delivery of the written report. We do not take card payments on this website. Bank transfer details appear on the engagement letter.

What fees do not cover

Solicitor fees for wills and trusts, accountant fees for tax returns, and product charges inside pensions or bonds sit outside our invoice. We flag those costs when they arise.
