24/7 Service
Tailored To Your Needs
How many firms of any kind do you know where you can speak to somebody 24 hours a day, 365 days a year?  At West Riding we are always available for our clients. Out of office hours call Neil on 07904 332531. We understand that decisions affecting your financial future are amongst the most important you’ll ever make. That’s why we treat every client with the greatest of care, consideration and understanding. We’ll give you the time and attention you need, and because we understand that many people work during office hours, we’re happy to meet on evenings or at weekends.
Please note that unlike many adviser firms these days, West Riding does not normally charge clients a regular monthly retainer fee.

What will happen?
Our first meeting will include a thorough fact-finding exercise. We will then provide our recommendations in writing, so you can consider them at your leisure, after which further meetings and discussions may follow. Where necessary we will work with your solicitor, accountant or other professional advisor to ensure our advice fits with theirs. As you would expect, we place the highest importance on total client confidentiality. Most important of all, we tell it like it is, in plain English, explaining any risk that’s involved.

Why Independent?
As Independent Financial Advisors it’s our job to act on your behalf and in your best interests. Being independent means we are free to choose from a very wide range of providers, finding the best products for your particular circumstances.  

Charges
Most clients choose to work on a commission basis with nothing to pay if they decide not to take the advice given. Alternatively if you prefer us to work on a fee basis like an accountant or solicitor, we are happy to do so.

The Myth of Dealing Direct
Some insurance companies and supermarkets have managed to convince many people that they can offer clients lower costs for dealing direct with them without taking independent advice. The reality is that no advice equals no consumer rights and we can offer more competitive quotes anyway.  What's more, we give the valuable tax and trust advice that direct providers and supermarkets just can’t offer.
