  Mrs L White - Market Harborough

• I am delighted that I chose Freeman & Co to look after me from incorporation, to date. Despite only being in business for 18 months now, I have been supported not only with aspects to do with the financials but in general from IP to strategic planning. It has been great to be able to have another opinion from time to time and to go to when unsure. Freeman & Co have been consistently accessible, approachable, efficient and supportive, definitely one of the better decisions I have made!

  Mrs A Taylor - Peterborough

• I have used Freeman & Co for a couple of years now. Always a friendly voice and clear guidance on my tax and account work.

  Mrs N Richardson - Market Harborough

• We selected Freeman & Co as their accountants over 4 years ago. During this time their service has been nothing but efficient, professional and of the highest quality. They helped us make the required business changes including company shares, PAYE and VAT. Having been impressed with Freeman & Co’s service over recent years they were the natural choice as our accountants when we established Squared Away Digital. Again Jonathan and the team arranged all the legislative and formalities required for an Ltd Company allowing us to focus on growing that business too.
  
  Over the years Jonathan has saved both companies and ourselves personally significant amounts of money. His availability and willingness to quickly answer or research any queries we have has assisted us in being agile and making informed decisions with confidence. I am more than confident Freeman & Co will continue to provide the same high professional standards over the coming years and look forward to continuing to work with them.

  Mike Sweet - Director - Market Harborough, Leicestershire.

• I launched my company 18 months ago. Jonathan has been fantastic at helping me start up the company accounts. I am using Xero and Jonathan helped me get the settings correct for my business. We recently connected Taxomate to the Xero account for the Amazon sales. Jonathan has been invaluable with helping me set this up and resolve reconciliation issues with Amazons settlements. Jonathan is very happy to look in to new online software to connect to Xero to make the most of the features available. I definitely couldn't have done it all without his help. He is always at the end of the phone when I have a question and is quick to look in to any issues I have via his online Xero login. He has also been very efficient with completing my tax returns. I would definitely recommend using him as your accountant, especially if you do your accounts online with Xero.

  Also, efficient and helpful with all queries. Happy to give advice and make suggestions about initiatives that may help the company progress.

  MJ Drinkwater - New Zealand

• My company started 10 years ago and we have enjoyed a growing reputation for bespoke and creative architecture since. In terms of our business success and financial management I can firmly credit this to choosing the right accountant in Freeman & Co. They helped setup the business from day one - with companies house through to a limited company, shares, VAT and tax management to annual accounts and PAYE. Jonathan keeps up to date with changes in legislation that effect both our business and personal finances and has on many occasions saved thousands of pounds. Jonathan is extremely professional and polite as well as being helpful when needing financial advise or clarity. It is not an exaggeration to say that I put a lot of our businesses success down to a solid financial foundation put in place with Freeman & Co and can highly recommend their services for both new businesses and those established.

• Good friendly service from Jonathan, always helpful and adding value.

  Mr C Bosworth - Managing Director - Tur Langton, Leicestershire.

• Thinklab appointed Freeman & Co a couple of years ago as our previous accountant had caused us considerable issues. We really needed a firm to straighten our accounts and offer us advice on legacy issues and future concerns. We met Jonathan at a meeting and within the hour appointed him to help us. I can honestly say that we have had above and beyond the service expected and the advice has been invaluable. I can recommend Jonathan for being honest, professional and extremely knowledgable. 5 star service!

  Mr C Redecen-Davies - Stanion, Northamptonshire

• Jonathan is extremely pleasant, calm and patient in his interactions. Being very new to this I had a huge amount of questions and didn't always feel at ease with all of the unknowns; particularly being new to book keeping. Jonathan always took the time out to explain things in great detail and in simple terms which was really useful to me, as someone needing significant guidance. Both Jonathan and Ruth were always very timely and prompt with their communication and the turnaround for my tax return when I requested this (during a very busy period) was excellent.

  John Fraser Wright - Kettering - Northamptonshire

• Jonathan has been extremely helpful to me in the 8 years since I started my business, he not only provides an excellent accounting service but provides suggestions for improving and taking the business forward. The most recent change into using Iris KashFlow was achieved with very little effort on my part and I can see already that it will be of great help in saving time with my accounting processes. The personal attention given to the business is what makes Freeman & Co.'s accounting services exceptional.

  Ms Janet Nelson - Sole trader - Tighnabruaich, Argyll

  Mr Simon Whitmore - Owner - Director

• What were the circumstances that caused you to look for an Accountant? Was looking for a local accountant to help prepare my annual accounts. How did Jonathan Freeman help you?

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for? Yes.

  Dr E May - Leicestershire

• We are both very relieved, to say the least, with the outcome of the HMRC appeal. Again, many, many thanks for your assistance in resolving this matter.

  Mike Sweet - Director - Market Harborough, Leicestershire.

• I have used Jonathan as the accountant for my Sole Trader business since 2008 and due to ongoing success, in January 2018 my business became a Limited Company. Jonathan helped me to make the changes to my accounts, banking and Kashflow as well as providing lots of information on who I needed to inform and when, about the changes. The paperwork involved in setting up the business was very easily handled with Jonathan's help and there were no problems at all during the changeover. Advice was given on all aspects of the Limited Company setup and it was done at a pace which suited me and allowed me to continue working at my job while the administrative issues were sorted out by Jonathan. I am now in my 9th month operating as a Limited Company and can already appreciate the benefits of the change. Separating my personal expenditure from the business has enabled me to see more clearly where I can improve things and make savings and this has enabled me to run my finances in a much more efficient and easier to understand way. I am delighted with the way things have turned out and can highly recommend Jonathan's services should you decide to go down the Ltd Company route.

  Ms Janet Nelson - Owner - Scotland

• After having problems in completing my self-assessment last year I decided I needed an accountant, and looking online I was not very impressed with the advice on offer, but then found an advertisement in my local ‘Rural Trader’ for Jonathan Freeman. As soon as he answered my telephone call, I felt that here was someone I could trust. That trust was confirmed when we met for the initial consultation. Jonathan took the time to explain things in a clear and concise manner, and put me at ease with my concerns and questions. He dealt with my accounts quickly, and in a very professional manner, and through his attention to detail, he also found, that following some amendments to my previous years self assessment, I was actually due a tax refund. Quite a sizeable one for me personally, and I am still trying to digest this information! It was the best decision to contact Jonathan, and I cannot thank him, or recommend him highly enough.

  Mrs S Mann - Great Glen, Leicestershire

• When I first set up my business, one area I considered to be a grey area and also something I was frightened to death of was tax, HM Revenue & Customs and accountancy.
