We have been using Hughes O'Dea Corredig as our accountants for many years now, after a family referral. Denis Grant is our accountant - and you simply could not ask for more in an accountant, than Denis. He listens, he's knowledgeable, he's interested, he's professional, and he's a charming and terrific bloke. 5 stars, always recommended. Thanks.
