I have used Deans services for both self assessment as well as limited company formation and book keeping. He's been super helpful in helping me manage my accounts and grow my business and has always been there to help when I have questions (many of them!). Highly recommend him and his team to anyone looking for an accountant.
Rob Carter
These guys are the best around. They have made my life so much easier. I've had a few accountants in the past and found it difficult to get hold of them. Shepherd accountants always respond quickly and are always at the end of the telephone. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Great accountancy firm have used for numerous years and recommended to others thanks
Anthony Soa
When I found Dean it has been the best decision. He is professional, knowledgeable, friendly and reliable. I became self employed just over 3 years and the previous accountant had completely messed my 2 year off accounts. Dean was extremely reliable in getting what need to be done correctly, in a timely manner and kept me posted along the way and he was good in helping me understand what has been done. I’m extremely happy with his servers and would highly recommend him.
Connor Jardin
Excellent company always gets me a good return highly recommend.

Highly professional service from Dean. 2018 was my first year as a Limited Company and Dean provided me with advice during my company setup, completed my Company Tax Returns and will be doing my Personal Tax at tax year end - through this all his guidance, advice, work and information has been very good. Highly recommended.
Kevin Stanley
Approachable and professional. Dean was very friendly, took the time to explain my accounts in great detail and gave me lots of advice in the process. He also dealt with an HMRC issue on my behaIf which saved me a lot of time and grief. I highly recommend him and will return next time for my self assessment tax return.
David Miland
Dean has been an amazing help for me with anything related to my tax return and HMRC. He has been very quick to get back to me whenever I have been in touch, and managed to address any HMRC/tax problems for me very efficiently. He has taken all the stress out of my annual tax return and managed to resolve a long standing issue that I struggled to sort out before. Plus he's a nice guy too, very approachable and easy to get on with, thank you.
Luke Symmonds
Dean came recommended to me. We met to discuss my group of companies and my requirements. He understood exactly what I needed and he quoted a very competitive price to look after the entire portfolio. Since then communication has been easy, Dean contacts me when something is needed or I am free to forward him any correspondence I receive for his advice/action. I have a lot of experience with different accountants with varying charges - however I can honestly say that Dean has by far been the best fit for me, and I highly recommend him to business owners who want a knowledgeable, pro-active accountant who doesn't charge you crippling amounts for their time.
John Mclennan
Dean has been like an emergency service to me regarding a HMRC issue, his advice has helped sort things out and further more has advised changes in my business that will save me a lot of money in future years. I cant speak of him highly enough. You would be genuinely lucky to have him working for you. His service level is very high and he will go that extra mile to help his clients and put things in a way that we can all understand. John Mclennan, Blooming Landscapes Design & Build Ltd

HT Motor Services Ltd
I wanted a personal approach from an accountant. Found Dean on Google and he was only round the corner. Dropped him an email and straight away knew he would be ideal, he is straight to the point and very professional. Always happy to schedule an appointment for anything I need help with. I started trading as a part time business and wanted someone to just deal with what I have no idea about, he's done exactly that and answered any questions I've had. Always available to point me in the right direction. Now that I have gone full time, he has set me up with everything I need to get my business going in the right direction. I'm a small time business, but not matter what size I am confident Dean can provide the same quality service. It has taken a weight off me knowing I can crack on and do my own work with all my books in order using Dean.
Chloe Stuckey
Dean is so helpful! I became self employed 2 years ago and didn't have a clue about anything, he's helped me through it all and he is very good at explaining complex things in easy ways to understand. Wouldn't recommend anyone else

I moved from another Accountant to Shephard accountants because my previous accountant's charges went up considerably. I met with Dean to discuss my account and I found him extremely professional, helpful, knowledgeable. After meeting with Dean I decided to appoint him as my personal accountant. Since then, I have found his service very good; he is always reliable and efficient. I have been impressed by the speed at which he responded to all of my enquires. I would highly recommend him to any employer.

This is the first time I have been self employed in my working life so finding an accountant was a bit of a worry. On speaking to Dean I was set at ease and after meeting him and sorting my tax out I have to fully endorse the other positive comments about his service. I would recommend him without question.
