What our clients say

Couldn’t have asked for a better service
Been with Dolan for over 2 years now, when I started contracting I knew nothing about running a limited company. Steven, my accountant, has been nothing but helpful from day one. Whenever I had issues or questions, he always provided assurance with speedy replies and helpful advice. He is patient, professional, the list goes on and on…
While I only have my own experience to go by, I heard similar positive comments from other contractors I’ve worked with. I can recommend Dolan if you are new to contracting or just want a good service.
