What they say
Martin has been brilliant in the time I've been using Gold Stag. Every question I’ve had has been answered (of which there have been many) and he’s been very helpful to me getting my company going in its first year.
First time doing self-assessment form, explain my queries and what I need in layman's terms. Very helpful!
Martin is a great accountant and a nice guy too. I can honestly say Martin is the man if you're looking for someone reliable to look after your finances and a great price. Highly recommended!
Martin is brilliant! He has saved us thousands within the first year. He puts my anxiety at ease with a conservative approach for us. And he makes my day with his on-point memes.
