What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Retirees and individuals preparing for retirement form the core of the clientele whose feedback appears for this Hobart practice, with reviews consistently highlighting the reassurance that comes from long-term financial guidance. Advisers Finn Dorney, Tim Breen and Campbell Breheny are named repeatedly, and multiple customers describe the personal way their portfolios are handled and the confidence this instils. A recurring theme is the sense of security clients feel knowing their financial affairs are managed with their interests at heart, with one widow noting the comfort this brings.

The move into retirement, and the planning that precedes it, features prominently, and several accounts note prompt responses to requests and the availability of support when circumstances change. Communication before and after meetings is described as clear, and the continuity of advice across changes of adviser is noted with appreciation. Alongside retirement planning, the practice covers investment services, estate planning, insurance and mortgage broking, yet the feedback centres on the calibre of personal guidance. Long-standing relationships, in some cases spanning decades, are a feature of the accounts, as is the feeling of being genuinely supported through significant life events and the transitions that follow them.

My advisor at Shadforths, Tim Breen, has been one of the most important factors in my feeling comfortable and settled in Tasmania. His depth of knowledge and the personally oriented way he approaches my portfolio mean that I feel on top of my financial affairs and that I have an easily available way to check and be reassured at any time.

My adviser for several years has been Tim Breen and his advice, support, and good communication had ensured that we have a financial setup that we are very happy and comfortable with. We feel that we have received help and advice that has been invaluable in reaching this position.

The reassurance that Finn Dorney and Team respond quickly to our needs and requests. And will be there to help if adverse situations develop. We are being challenged by the rapid evolution of the electronic communications and processes. And the assumption that everyone is competent with the on-line world and communication. I have been with Shadforths since the days of Geoff Wells! So much has changed and is changing.

Campbell Breheny is always there for me whenever I need his advice. It always seems correct and gives me as a widow of 93 great security and comfort.
