Freelancers / consultants

Operating on your own as either a sole trader or via a limited company can be a lonely job. You often also need a lot more from your accountant that just the year end tax return.

LKA provides tailored accounting services that allow you to run your business knowing you are making the right financial decisions ahead of time, with the right support when you need it.

LKA client case study: why I stay with my accountancy firm

Joanna Gaudoin, consultant and client of LKA writes about the importance of client relationships:

“I wanted to share an example to show the importance of client relationships and the value behind the slow build of trust, respect and rapport and realised there was (at least) one in my own professional life where I am the client.”

Here’s what our clients have to say

Why I stay with my accountancy firm

I wanted to share an example to show the importance of client relationships and the value behind the slow build of trust, respect and rapport and realised there was (at least) one in my own professional life where I am the client.

Reflecting on my relationship with my accountancy firm, it’s clear that the way they handle clients has kept me loyal- even when I occasionally receive less than welcome updates, such as a fee increase! So, what has kept me with LKA?

  • Proactive communication: I never need to chase for information. They keep me in the loop about when they’ll be working on something and what they’ll need from me, which minimises my workload and keeps everything on track.
  • Accuracy and reliability: Their work is consistently accurate, so I trust them to handle things without needing constant oversight.
  • Open to discussion: They are always willing to talk through issues and provide an informed perspective. This helps me feel supported and confident in their advice.
  • Accessibility: The business owner, who has grown her business from just herself and one other to two offices and to a team of about 20 people, always calls me back within 24 hours if I contact her. This level of availability shows me that they care about their clients, even as they’ve grown.
  • Reasonable support: I don’t feel like I am being charged for every small request. For example, when I needed evidence for a mortgage application, they provided it without hesitation or extra charges, which I really appreciated.


These small but consistent actions have built my loyalty and keep me from considering alternatives. In the end, the overall experience I receive outweighs minor issues that inevitably crop up, and I feel valued as a client.
