What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Leicester clients of Rowley Turton describe an independent financial advice practice where pension and retirement planning dominates the feedback. Customers repeatedly mention the clarity with which complex investment and estate planning matters are explained, and reviewers note that advisers take time to understand individual goals before recommending any course of action. Three advisers feature by name across the accounts. Scott Gallacher is described as approachable, knowledgeable and refreshingly honest, with one client recalling that research into their pension scheme had been undertaken ahead of the first meeting.

Martin Stanley is credited with guiding clients through pension transfers and estate planning, including a case where control was regained over a pension that had been mismanaged elsewhere. Alan Turton is praised for professionalism, responsiveness and a commitment to understanding what each client wants to achieve. A theme running through the feedback is the reassurance clients take from annual reviews, with advice characterised as thoughtful and well informed rather than driven by company profit. Alongside pensions, the practice handles investment management and broader financial arrangements, and several reviewers highlight that help remains available for follow-up questions and pension terminology long after the initial consultation has ended.

I recently met with Martin Stanley at Rowley Turton to review my retirement, estate planning and wider financial arrangements, and I have been extremely impressed with the service and advice I have received. Martin has a professional yet very approachable style. He takes the time to explain complex financial and estate planning matters in a clear, straightforward way that is easy to understand, allowing you to make informed decisions with confidence. What particularly stood out to me was his balanced approach. Rather than making unrealistic promises or suggesting that every option is the perfect solution, Martin carefully explains the advantages, disadvantages and potential risks of each course of action. That honesty and objectivity gave me real confidence that the recommendations were genuinely in my family's best interests. Throughout the process I have felt listened to, never rushed, and fully involved in the decision-making. I would have no hesitation in recommending Martin to anyone looking for professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy financial advice delivered in a friendly, down-to-earth manner.

I have been with Rowley Turton (IFA) Ltd for over 10 years. Scott has been my advisor and his knowledge and understanding of the financial world is most impressive but, however, he is able to explain it all in a very easy and logical manner. I have no hesitation in recommending him as an advisor

Just completed an annual review with Scott. I am heading for retirement and it’s good to know my finances are in order and being actively managed. But more importantly Scott is able to provide the financial reassurance needed for me to make some big decisions.

What an excellent choice we made to go with Martin and his team at Rowley Turton to finalise our pensions. Martin gave us a warm welcome and we felt comfortable from the start. They were professional and friendly…always there when we needed help understanding all the pension jargon. They were a pleasure to deal with and helped us through what seemed a jungle at times. Martin guided us through all the options and we are extremely happy with the service we received. Thank you.
