I engaged Connolly Accountants and their chap Dan Rust was put on the job. Nice guy, a light and pleasant sense of humour, and he did the number crunching and form filling with ruthless efficiency. The price was very reasonable too. Can't praise Connolly's and Dan and Alana enough. Thank you. Matthew Williams 2024-12-04 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
