I now feel much more secure, and financially sound

I recently spoke to one of my clients , let’s call her Grace, to ask what benefit she obtained from us working together.

What prompted you to have a meeting with me?

I was quite anxious about my financial future, and had no clear idea of where I stood. I didn’t know what information I needed or how to get hold of that information.

I was in a real quandary and found the situation really challenging. I was desperate for some peace of mind about my finances, since the worry and uncertainty was keeping me awake at night.

How did you feel at our first meeting?

At the meeting I was very upset and emotional since I just didn’t know what my finances looked like. However, you were very empathetic and put me at ease. You made me feel very comfortable and safe.

Prior to the meeting I was concerned about how I’d feel about my lack of financial understanding. However, even though I’m not financially savvy you treated me with empathy and acknowledged that I did have a brain!

I left that meeting feeling much more confident and it set my mind at ease. You were very easy to take to.

What difference has our working together made to you?

I now feel much more secure, and financially sound. I know I can retire in 1 year if I wish. It is such a total weight off my mind.

Any final words:

“If you’re worrying about your money, do find someone you can work with. Don’t let it take its toll on you emotionally and physically.

Would you be happy to throw away your money?

Now of course we all know that if I asked this question directly the answer from everyone would be “NO”. And probably you would think that I was even mad to ask the question.  And yet, I often see this being done by my clients. I am dealing with a client now who received a…

Pension not discussed as part of divorce.

The Scottish Widows Women and Retirement Report 2014 noted that among divorced women 84% said pensions weren’t discussed or they couldn’t remember them being discussed as part of any settlement. This is a similar figure to previous years. This is very worrying. Not because I believe 84% of family lawyers failed to discuss the pension…
