LB Group - Colchester

David Bell

Over the past 18 years of business I have used numerous accountants for my businesses, but since being introduced to LB Group I would look no further. Our business relationship is excellent and they understand what we really need as a business and how to help manage our business too. They look after so many key elements of our businesses from advanced tax planning, payroll, quarterly and yearly financials to personal tax and more recently pensions and R&D claims. The team at LB Group have saved us vast amounts of money through their expertise and knowledge.

I have on many occasions recommended LB Group and would continue to do so without hesitation. If you are looking for more than just an accountant that cares and will make a difference to your business, then look no further.

I swapped accountants to LB group around 8 years ago, and it may possibly be the best commercial decision I ever made.

Paul Mustoe, and his team have been instrumental in managing my business and personal finances.

The key feature for me has been regular proactive tax planning, which has allowed me to capitalise on benefit after benefit, year in year out.

They’ve facilitated my house moves, investment strategies, business sale, inheritance tax planning and even my household switch to electric vehicles!

Accountants are usually seen as a necessary evil, but in the case of LB Group, you have a commercially focussed team who if you speculate on, will almost certainly help you accumulate both in your business and personal finances.

We were originally introduced to the LB Group by a family member who had recently started using their accountancy services and was very complimentary about them.

As we were just starting our first limited company, choosing the right accountant was essential and were very impressed when Stuart Sheldrick met with us and carefully explained everything we would need to know to ensure the smooth running of the business, the fees were also very reasonable when compared to other accountants of the same size.

As our primary activity is advising clients on claiming R&D Tax Relief, we work with a number of accountancy firms and can honestly say that LB are one of the best both in terms of competitive fees and excellent customer service.

Over the past 18 months we have seen rapid growth which simply wouldn’t have been possible if not for the on-going support offered by Stuart and the LB Group.

For anyone looking for a new accountant, audit services or specialist tax advice we cannot recommend the LB group highly enough.

I had the pleasure of initially being introduced to Mr Paul Mustoe, Tax Director 3 years ago by virtue of my business partner Gurp Bains (see review below) and their long standing relationship. This review is drafted in isolation of that bond and in tribute to, what I would call, the 'consigliere' of our partnership. Paul has a Tom Hagen-esque (if you know then you know) ability to shape and challenge decisions as a "businessman with a tax hat on." Having spent nearly 20 years working in the City, I have become accustomed to groaning at internal tax specialists when seeking tax advice and their ability to merely regurgitate a litany of HMRC manuals vis a vis taxation which is a very dry subject at the best of times.
Paul provides options that are commercial, lucid and instil confidence and as a result, ALL major decisions procure the necesary Mustoe attention for the sake of completeness.
Supplementing Pauls strategic advice has been an invaluable operational resource in the shape of Harry Weller who has shown immense diligence, pride in his work and provides us with the utmost comfort that we are in safe hands.

I have been using LB Groups services for over 3 years to which I am very satisfied with the value, quality of service, professionalism and how proactive the company is. The proactive element is very important to us as is the value for money as this was lacking with our previous accountants. Would highly recommend!

Having been our accountants for over 15 years it was a sad day when they decided to just dump us without notice due to us challenging advice given. Over past 18 months its become more about money rather than service which is a shame as before this we had very few issues.
