My wife and I have recently been dealing with Joseph (Joe) Nield of Key Estate Planning in relation to our estate planning needs (Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney etc.). Throughout the process we have found Joe to be thoroughly professional and extremely helpful in guiding us through areas in which we have little knowledge or expertise. I can highly recommend Joe to anyone needing similar advice and guidance.

My equity release plan was exactly what i needed for a comfortable retirement.
Joesph Withers was a very helpful adviser who helped me through the process, and ensured I got the most suitable plan in place.

Lesley Frame was my financial advisor. From the outset she telephone me at the exact time she said she would on my appointment day. She explained the ins and outs of the equity release process in simple terms that I could understand. She made my experience super comfortable and set me at ease, Lesley is extremely knowledgeable in her field of expertise explaining the process of equity release and gave me invaluable guidance throughout the entire process. At times it was a little daunting, but with her help, guidance and support I was very happy with the outcome.
Lesley was very friendly, and highly skilled in her field of work and I would thoroughly recommended her.

We recently rang Key for advice on Equity Release, they put us in touch with Neil Bell. Neil was so friendly, very professional, extremely knowledgeable. Most importantly he listened. He made the process very easy, nothing was too much trouble and he was always there if we needed advice. He went above and beyond. Thank you Neil and to everyone else who helped with our equity release journey.

Simon Clow could not have been more helpful in the advice he gave us regarding updating our wills, following taking out an equity release to assist one of our children to purchase a home. Everything was explained very clearly and he responded very quickly to any queries we had.
