Created with AI, based on recent reviews
We have been one of the country’s leading independent financial advisers for 50 years. Some of our clients have been with us for decades.

Our financial advice spans a wide range of services including pensions, wills, care funding and wealth management as well as business protection, employee benefits and workplace financial education. More than 15,000 clients trust us with the ongoing management of their financial affairs. We believe that’s because our advice is completely independent, and tailored to them. We do not offer one-size-fits-all solutions.

Our FA was on holiday and had very efficiently left us in the more than capable hands of Chantelle Ferguson in Brechin. Wow! I cannot praise Chantelle’s help more highly. She went above and beyond to make sure our funds, needed for the purchase of a house, were available bang on time. My daughter’s solicitor required a lot of verification from us and she sorted it all out. If only we had more Chantelles in this world,it would be a much better and nicer place. Thank you so much. Chantelle!
I find Frank Durkin's guidance and advice very reassuring and helpful. Given my very basic knowledge about finance, it is very helpful to get information in simple terms. He is always available when I need guidance.

Dafydd Armstrong
I feel strongly that when individuals give exceptional service it should be noted in some way. Dafydd in his capacity as Financial Adviser for Chase de Vere has definitely gone that extra mile to advise both on my current portfolio and probate issues which needed sorting.I have been impressed with how meticulous he has been in responding to all my questions and how well prepared he showed himself to be at our meeting earlier this week. He devoted most of the afternoon explaining clearly all the steps that needed to be taken and offered to take the lead to facilitate all the necessary paperwork and deal with my solicitor. Figures relating to my portfolio were also very clearly set out and discussed.True to his word he has updated me by email most days this week to clarify progress.I have great confidence that Dafydd will be invaluable in guiding me through everything and his conscientious and enthusiastic approach will be a great asset to your Company

Useful & informative discussion with friendly advisor (Tom)- covered many topics.

Well, they were very good for the 20 years. I was with them.. then suddenly I was expelled overnight for no obvious reason, leaving me in the lurch and bewildered.
I can only assume it was because I had the audacity not to accept one of their proposals which I took as meaning they weren’t making enough money out of me.

Our advisor was so professional and knowledgeable from start to finish

Oliver Orchant is fantastic and works around my long hours after work and available anytime for questions and concerns. Makes sure I understand everything and works with what I am comfortable with. Highly recommend him!

The team were fantastic. They were always on hand to provide assistance and help update our mortgage when plans changed. Can't thank the team enough.

I was looking for advice on what to do with the several pension pots I had after retirement. I had had brief contact with Chase de Vere the previous year when I was considering retiring, but on that advice I waited until I knew exactly what I had. I was assigned an adviser, who contacted me quickly to find out what I was looking for, and to arrange a series of meetings. I feel that I received clear advice on investments and pensions that was appropriate to my circumstances and with which I am very happy

We met with Simon Walshe this evening via a video link. He was really easy to talk to and explained things in a very simple and easy to understand manner. We wanted retirement advice and he went through what options we have taking into account the finances we have. There was no hard sale, just a compassionate understanding of what we are hoping to achieve and how to get there. He gave us advice which didn't actually involve further action at this point but we will definitely be using him in the future when the time comes to get our pensions.

Tom Steele demonstated good communication skills and provided all the relevant information I needed.
He promised to give me a prompt reply to my queries.

Harry Steele provided an extremely friendly and informative session with me to explain my NHS pension options in a clear and understandable way. He laid out options open to me and gave me time to consider the ramifications with an offer to clarify things further as needed. I felt a lot better informed and much happier having seen him. He also was open to further discussion about investment opportunities as I needed them. Excellent work Harry.

Had a free call with Harry Steele. Talked through all aspects of life insurance critical illness cover and income protection as well as NHS pension etc. have decided to move forward on policy based on his expert recommendation.

Smooth transition, no delays, and if there was anything I was unsure about they contacted the solicitors on my behalf. It's the second time I've used them and would use their mortgage services again.

Ashley Bowen – Mortgage advice
I contacted Ashley for advice regarding my current mortgage setup. He thoroughly reviewed all aspects with me and outlined the necessary steps I should follow. Ashley communicated with my current mortgage provider, where I had obtained an excellent rate. He then followed up with me to ensure I maintained that arrangement instead of opting for a complete remortgage.
Ashley was incredibly helpful, and I will be recommending him to my friends, family, and colleagues in the future.

I went for Chase De Vere as I wanted a financial overview and some financial advice with regards to income protection and James, Liam and Ollie helped me with understanding my finances better, as well as walking through the options and questions asked by income protection providers sensitively. They managed to find me a good income protection provider and were all very professional and helpful and patient with me.
