Client Experiences
“Income Protection was always a thought at the back of my mind and something i "should" arrange but kept putting it off, as i thought it would involve a mountain of paperwork and I just didn't have the time for that.
After talking to Alisa, I quickly changed my perception. Alisa was a wealth of knowledge and took the time to understand my needs and explain the types of covers available, to ensure that my assets I have worked so hard for would be protected, should the unfortunate happen. Alisa has made the process extremely painless.“

“I have known Alisa Burns for a good few years now since I separated from my husband of 31 years. I was not in a good financial position at the time and wondered whether I would ever be able to enjoy retiring from work.
With Alisa's positive attitude and her financial knowledge, i was able to retire comfortably earlier this year, a little ahead of our original schedule. I could not have done this without her expertise and confidence. I completely trust her and respect the caution with which she manages my finances. I have also realised I can save.......... especially if some of my income is filtered off before I even see it!! She remains my go-to person for sound and effective financial advice and I would highly recommend her to everyone.”
