One of the best accountants I have ever encountered

I’ve been using Steve’s accounting services for 15+ years now both as a client and as a bookkeeper with clients in common. I rate Steve as one of the best accountants I have ever encountered professionally.

Always provided me with timely and wise advice

Steve has been my accountant for over 20 years. He’s always provided me with timely and wise advice and assisted me with the changing tax issues that have come along as my life has changed, through things such as marriage, children and investment properties. He’s been ‘top notch’ every step of the way.

Good reliable accountant

Steve Hamilton has been my account now for nine years. Originally he was recommended to me by my book keeper.

During this time I have had multiple business and investment properties. Steve has always made himself available. He has always been friendly and approachable with any questions that I might have.

I have since past Steve’s details on to a number of my friends and family members and would recommend him to anyone looking for a good reliable accountant.
