About Us
At Halewood our team of advisers work closely with our clients across our business areas to ensure you have the best access to information and advice when you need it.
When founding Halewood, we understood that our clients’ financial needs have many crossovers, and we aim to make the process as seamless as possible. You will often find our advisers working together with clients as we believe that having all our professionals in one place makes getting financial advice easier. Using our bespoke booking system, you can request multiple advisers for any meeting!
