Libertas have done a fantastic job of consolidating my pensions! I now no longer have five statements to ignore but one I have explained to me in an easy-to-understand format with regular reviews to suit me. I can always pick up the phone to speak to Phil, Sarah or James and I'm never made to feel like my question is trivial. I'm really pleased with their service.

I met Phil because Phil had dealt with my family for years - he knew my Dad. I decided to continue out of loyalty and because of my Dads good judgement in choosing Phil as his Financial Adviser.
Im very, very happy with what hes doing. He keeps it simple. He knows my strategy and the risk factor Im comfortable with, and we get along as individuals; I like him. Hes always given me confidence and did the same for my Dad, so I see absolutely no reason to change. The Inheritance Tax planning work Phils done has been most helpful. Despite me not having millions to invest, I was

I have been a client of Phil Clerkin for nearly 20 years, his sensible guidelines to sorting all my private pensions into one and working with me to plan for my retirement seven years ago have been seamless - everything has gone to plan. I can't thank him and his team enough for their continued support and useful newsletters.
