Keeping And Protecting What You Have Earned

We get up every morning to help family run businesses build a better future for the next generation because family is the most important part of all of our lives.

When you first set up your business, perhaps when you were young and carefree with little or no assets to worry about, you were happy to take risks because quite frankly you had little to lose.

However as you get older and have accumulated a home, a family, some investments, your desire to take risks dramatically reduces. Your thoughts turn to protecting what you have accumulated for the benefit of your children or even just to support you in your old age. Thoughts turn to paying off debts faster to reduce borrowings, or investing to build value for the future as you plan for a potential exit or sale.

We have listed just a few of the things we help our clients to consider when protecting assets from risks.

Protecting company assets by restructuring Why leave valuable assets in a risk based trading business?

Savings and investments both Corporate and Personal.

Illness or injury and its affects on both your business and your personal life.

Divorce 42% of marriages end in divorce so how do you protect your business?

Retirement planning or perhaps you would prefer to die at your desk? Not many people would.

Caring for the elderly so that may be to support your parents or ensure your business can help pay for your own care.

Estate planning and reducing potential Inheritance Tax. Inheritance tax was once called a voluntary tax paid by those who distrust their heirs more than they dislike the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

What our clients say!

“I have been in the consultancy sector of business for 10 years and have worked with Wood & Disney throughout this time. During this time they have worked with me through the good and bad times to help evolve my business and steer me in the right direction.

With the help of Wood & Disney I moved my records onto QuickBooks Online accounting software. I struggled to find the time to use the system to its full potential therefore I soon offloaded all the hassle onto Wood & Disney who have been able to provide me with far more beneficial real time information which has allowed me to make far better decisions for both myself and my company. I started to notice a real difference as, in a difficult period for the very niche industry, my time was freed up to spend looking for new contracts.

“After being with Wood & Disney for several years and recently embracing cloud computing and outsourcing payroll to them I would like to say a big thank you to the whole team.

I am constantly delighted with the comprehensive and tailored support that we receive, they are a wonderful bunch of professionals. They provide us with prompt and friendly help and guidance whenever needed which is important when running a small company. They are forward thinking and always take the opportunity to give advice on improving our profitability. I can't think of anyone I would trust more with our accounts".

“I have been working with Wood and Disney for about 4 years now and I am very satisfied with the service I have received from them. They are by far the best accounting company I have worked with. They are not just my accountants; they are very professional business consultants who have been providing me with very useful suggestions on different aspects of my business. They are very competent and experienced in what they do. Brendon and David who have been working with us, are very professional and knowledgeable, and the advice they offered me in relation to claiming my company’s R&D Tax relief has been extremely useful. As such, I have no hesitation in recommending them as a very professional and reliable accounting firm based in Colchester".

In my view, Wood & Disney isn't just an accountancy firm, but instead act as my business advisors. They support me and my business in planning ahead and assessing what steps I need to take to help grow my business further, in a way that suits me. I would recommend Wood & Disney to anyone looking for plain-speaking help with the financial aspects of managing a growing business. Speak with David or Peter."

“I love that you are not stereotypical accountants. You make the “subject matter” interest (as best as is possible!), and I had fun when we meet! Your engagement process is slick and simple and I’m very clear on what I’ve signed up to and my responsibility in the business relationship. You have quickly earned my trust and I feel assured you will look after Neon Solutions business needs and support us with professional, honest advice when we need it.

I am especially grateful for your patience and support while we have been getting our business off the ground and am looking forward to Neon Solution’s future with confidence – I’m pleased we can share the road to success!”
