Advice that stays with you

Option1: As your business grows and the world around it continues to change, the relationship you have with your advisers becomes more important than ever.
We regularly speak with business owners who tell us that, following changes within their existing accountancy firm, the experience no longer feels the same, whether that’s due to fewer familiar faces, slower responses, or a service that feels less personal.
Option 2: As businesses evolve and the world continues to change at pace, strong advisory relationships matter more than ever.
At Rickard Luckin, we often hear from business owners who feel that changes within their current accountancy firm have altered the service they receive, from seeing fewer familiar faces, to slower response times, or a loss of that personal touch.

As an independent firm, we’re able to offer something that’s increasingly hard to find: genuine continuity. Your relationship isn’t shaped by new ownership or changing priorities, it’s backed by a team who knows you, understands your world and is fully invested in your goals.
If recent changes at your current adviser’s firm have left you questioning whether the partnership still feels right, we’re here as a steady, reassuring alternative.
To help you assess whether your current accountancy support still aligns with your needs, we’re offering a simple, no‑obligation Service Health Check. Many business owners find it helpful just to sense‑check whether they’re still receiving the service, attention and value they expect.
If you’d value a confidential conversation, please fill in the form below, and we will be happy to arrange a call with you.

"What an amazing experience I have had working with Alex Cook, particularly in relation to my end of year accounts for my businesses and the investment we have navigated.
Alex has been incredible, and in my opinion has gone above and beyond throughout the transaction. Not only was he brilliant at his job, but he called me out of hours at pressured moments in the transaction with a genuine care for the outcome, and when it was a super intense and stressful week this made all the difference to me. He also was prompt with the mass of requests and that helped me negotiate with confidence, knowing Alex could be reliable when I needed him.
Honestly – I think he is a huge asset to RL and I’m so thankful he was with me during this huge time of my life! What an incredible team member you have and thank you once again for really making
a difference."
