“Many thanks to the team for their supportive services. They have helped to simplify the process and helped me to understand specific requirements, making it easier to manage and make decisions, especially with regard to evolution. Efficient, knowledgeable and helpful. Very recommended.” — Henry “M.” Asafo-Agyei
“I have worked with Drazen and Aleks for just over a year now through my little aviation company. Drazen simplified the process of starting the company and has always been very helpful and prompt in answering questions relating to my accounts. For those starting a new company, I would highly recommend the TaxAssist team in Islington, having spent many hours speaking to more old-fashioned accountants who seemed to want to charge consultation fees for everything! I’m looking forward to many years more of working together with TaxAssist, Drazen and the team.” — Eric Critchley Aircraft Consulting Limited

“Meeting Ivan Ivan Rogove, BA FCA, Chartered Accountant, was a fortuitous encounter that left a lasting impression on me. Our paths crossed during a networking event, and from our very first interaction, I was struck by Ivan’s genuine willingness to assist. His immediate offer of support for my business project was not only generous but also incredibly insightful. He stands out as a beacon of professionalism and generosity.” — Sharon Bastien
“I had a problem with banking. I did not know how to deal with it. I was worried because, in my experience, without help from a professional in the right discipline, small problems can escalate into disasters. So I called Rogove and Company. The advice they gave me enabled me to understand the problem and, in addition, prepared me for a meeting with my bank. I followed the advice Ivan Rogove gave me, and all went very well indeed.” — Bill Thompson

“As a new business owner, I could not have felt safer in Debbie and her team’s hands. The process of my yearly bookkeeping and tax returns was handled smoothly and efficiently, with the added bonus of Debbie sharing her knowledge at each step. As someone starting out in their sector, I found this invaluable, and it saved me immeasurable time and stress. I look forward to all my dealings with Debbie and her team, but I cannot recommend Boobooks enough.” — Beth Allan
“BooBooks have been a pleasure to work with. I previously worked with a very ‘hands-off’ accountancy firm and paid the price for this years later. I’m happy to have found the opposite in BooBooks – a private business run predominantly by two professionals (Paul and Debbie) who know their industry inside out and go out of their way to offer the best advice they have at their disposal. Always friendly, always dependable, and I can truly say they somehow take the boring out of accounts with their vivacious personalities! I love this place and highly recommend it to anyone who’ll listen.” — Sarah Beckett-Hogg

“If you want to get rid of most of the headache of managing your company accounts, then I can’t recommend GoForma enough! I was completely clueless about how to run my own business on the accounting side, but Jordan and his team made it as simple and seamless as possible. Jordan conveyed complex subjects (to me) in an easily digestible manner and always had time to answer my questions. It’s very easy to book a slot with one of the team members, and they always give good advice and respond to my emails, whereas I’ve heard from friends that their accounting companies barely respond to queries. Give them a call. You won’t be disappointed!” — Anthony Low
“I decided to switch to Goforma based on a friend’s glowing recommendation. This was the best business decision I could have made! From day one, goforma has provided me with phenomenal service. My accountant, Jordan, responds to any inquiries extraordinarily fast. He also proactively offers advice about streamlining my finances and managing my business more efficiently. Within just a few months of working with GoForma, I’ve gained more practical financial insights than I did for years at my old firm. I’m incredibly impressed with GoForma’s commitment to communication, education, and leveraging technology to benefit their clients.” — Ivana Vidakovic
