I have worked with MFW Dover for many years and their support and service is exceptional. The team are brilliant and they often times bend over backwards to help and advise. Their all-round business advice is something I would not ordinarily associate with an accountancy firm but Ian Pascall and team are always there to help and offer their support accumulated from many years of business experience. Absolutely first class. Their costs are reasonable and I cannot fault them in any way.
Mr S Edwards, MD CAD Surveys Ltd
I run a small business and my main worries are any tax implications. Having Leigh there to hold my hand makes me feel confident in pushing my business forward. He has been great, always ready to answer any questions I put to him. My business has recently gone VAT registered, I can't thank Leigh enough for all the help with setting this up.
Mr D Parkinson, 1st Stop Property Solutions Ltd
We engaged your firm some years ago due to a very disappointing service from our previous Accountancy practice and due to this previous poor performance, we were naturally concerned about the service to be received from yourselves?
Mr Leigh Jones was assigned to our company, and from our very first introduction, has proved to be a highly competent and professional person. We are delighted with the service received from Leigh, who always has time to discuss any points, no matter how small, and his guidance has always proved to be a great asset in the running of the business.
Due to Leigh, we now use McCabe Ford Williams for our other property development and lettings business, plus for the personal tax affairs of our Directors.
We can thoroughly recommend McCabe Ford Williams and particularly Leigh Jones, as any client will be in safe hands. Top marks all round!

I am writing to thank you for your help and support during my recent financial problems. Having just lost my business, and faced with potentially losing my home as well, the whole situation was becoming extremely stressful. Your clear advice helped me focus on the key issues and after our meeting I felt that the black cloud that had been hanging over me had lifted.
Your professionalism, expertise and understanding really helped me come to grips with the situation and calmed me down.
Thank you
Mr D
