I can’t recommend Eliza highly enough. She is very quick to respond to my queries and reminds me about everything I need to do. This has been invaluable over the last 2 years helping me set up my business and keep on top of everything.

I have found Eliza to be highly professional, personable and have felt she has always acted in my best interest. Eliza provides clear advice making it easy to understand the complexities of accounting and tax regulations. Working remotely has never been a problem and she is always quick to respond!

I have used Eliza to look after my finances in the UK for over 5 years, I have always been really happy with level of service given. I am kept up to date throughout each tax cycle and have never had any concerns once I have sent all the required information. I can fully recommend Eliza.

I have been a client of Eliza King for the last year, during which I have had excellent service from Eliza with my accounts completed punctually and absolutely accurate.

I have been a client of Eliza King for the last 3 years during which my accounts have always been done impeccably and punctually. Her response to any questions or issues has been near immediate even when these have occurred outside of normal working hours. I have already recommended her to other colleagues and I became a client because of a recommendation as well

Eliza is a first class Accountant and extremely knowledgeable of overseas expatriate tax rules. I was working in London then had to move to work overseas in the middle of 2016. The firm I was using in London were simply not up to understanding the intricacies of overseas tax rules, and Eliza was recommended to me by an expatriate colleague. Since then I have not looked back. She is always available for a chat and very quick to reply to queries when required. Overall, excellent! And I couldn’t recommend anyone more if you are working overseas. 

Eliza has been my accountant for four years. She’s brilliant – answers all my questions, sends me reminders of what I need to do and generally keeps me in check. I have recommended her to all my freelance colleagues, who are similarly impressed.

I have always found Eliza to be extremely helpful, efficient and knowledgeable, especially with relation to rental property and holiday cottage tax. Explains complicated tax laws in simple English that even I can understand. Can highly recommend.

Excellent service. Efficient and available. Strongly recommended.

I can’t recommend highly enough, not only is her work of the highest quality, she takes the time to listen, and guide me through the complexities. She takes the time to speak to her clients, understand their situation and provide straightforward and effective advice. Very patient with (sometimes) stupid (and repeat) questions!
