What People Say About Me
I first met Femi by referred by my mortgage advisor 13 years ago after some issues with my tax code.
Since then, despite being PAYE, I have always used him and Loftus Stowe for my tax affairs – even now as an ex-pat. He and the team are professional, articulate, knowledgeable and re-assuring. They take control, exceed expectations and always deliver a five star service. With Femi, it doesn’t feel like a client-vendor relationship – it has the feel of a genuine business partnership. On top of this he is a genuinely nice guy with a great sense of humour. I would give Femi my highest recommendation and strongly urge others to use his services to simplify the complexities of tax affairs and gain peace of mind.

I hired Femi to assist with the tax structuring of an innovative start-up business based around a salary sacrifice mechanism.
He was able to provide professional advice around the subject of tax law whilst understanding and contributing to the strategic aspects of business, an area I found that many tax specialists have difficulty grasping. Femi was not deterred by the radical ideas I had for BBM Wellness and we have worked closely together in developing a unique business model. Most importantly for me, he was personable and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend Femi to anyone looking for similar tax advice.
