Abacus Advice has been fortunate to have Ray Beard as legal counsel for many years, so it’s especially gratifying  that when Ray retired he chose Abacus Advice. "Mike Hardy and I got to know each other through my work as a solicitor and over the years, I’ve come to respect his dedication and professionalism. To say that his advice has been life-changing is no exaggeration. As a result of his in-depth knowledge of the complexities of current pension arrangements, I’ve been able to switch from full-time to part-time practice ahead of the state retirement age. I now have the time to pursue my many other ambitions. I can genuinely recommend Mike’s clear, considered guidance, without reservation."

Wendy has a demanding roll at Speedy Plc, the market leader in Tools, Plant and Services solutions. It's a demanding role within a competitive environment. When she's not working, Wendy runs marathons, and enjoys foreign travel with her family. Somehow, she's found time to study for an MBA in Marketing. Her time is precious so Wendy decided to delegate the stewardship of her finances, and approached Abacus. "Abacus Advice was recommended to me by a friend and I have never looked back. They have provided me with excellent advice and services on many occasions over a long period of time, and I have no hesitation in recommending them."

John has been professional photographer since he left school. He has worked in the newspaper, television, motorsport, aviation and PR industries. He has been lucky to combine most of his hobbies with his work and can found messing around with motorbikes,vintage aircraft and steam trains most weekends. "Mike and his team have given me invaluable help in maximising my pension. Mike is always available to give me advice when I need it. I cannot recommend Abacus highly enough."

 "I was recommended Abacus when I was looking for someone whom could help me plan for early retirement making best use of my pensions as well as other monies received in a way that would be tax efficient. Mike has always been very friendly and professional, he listens and finds good solutions. If anything I should have contacted Mike many years ago. I am in a fortunate position where because of redundancy and with Mikes help I have been able to take early retirement and am now living the life I thought I would never be able to. My thanks to Mike for his assistance in achieving this."

"Mike Hardy at Abacus Advice has been nothing short of outstanding in the support he has provided both myself and my father. From start to finish, Mike has shown a rare combination of deep financial expertise, patience, and a genuine desire to do what’s best for his clients. For my father, Mike provided invaluable guidance during a crucial period of financial planning. He took the time to really understand my dad’s goals, financial position, and concerns about the future, and then delivered a clear, well-structured plan that Mike made, what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and reassuring. At the same time, Mike has also supported me with forward-looking advice around pensions, insurances and long-term financial planning. His ability to explain complex financial matters in a clear and accessible way has helped me feel more confident and in control of my financial future. It’s rare to find someone who can relate equally well across generations, and Mike does this brilliantly. The level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail that Mike brings to his work truly sets him apart. He’s responsive, honest, and always willing to go the extra mile. We both feel extremely fortunate to have found Abacus Advice, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mike to anyone looking for trustworthy, high-quality financial advice."

I have been using Abacus Advice for literally years. I cannot speak highly enough of Mike Hardy. I find Pensions and finances a bit of a struggle to understand but Mike is reassuring and explains everything in a calm, easy to understand way. Mike always is quick to respond both over the phone or email. I would recommend Abacus Advice with 5 Stars. Thank you for looking after my pension now and in the future.
