Paul Gorman

I am one of a very small number of Independent Financial Advisers in the UK who’ve attained Chartered Financial Planner status aswell as being a Resolution Accredited Specialist in financial planning on divorce.

I regularly provide financial planning support, guidance and advice during relationship breakdown, supporting lawyers and their clients across all types of dispute resolution.

Financial Planning to me is about listening and fully understanding, talking in plain and simple terms and delivering solutions that are effective in meeting what you want your money to do for you”.

I am a strong advocate of delivering advice in a simple and straightforward manner, creative when it needs to be, but above all advice led.
