We have been with Les for years and since he moved to this company they don't bother to respond to our emails. I guess we aren't worth enough to them as a customer. Disappointing.

Nick Street has been a wonderful help to our business now for over five years and provided Michael our GM and myself as an owner with excellent advice and guidance. Nick has introduced us to other key Wilson Pateras specialists whom have all provided logical, measured and commercial advice all under the watchful eye of Nick. I cannot speak more highly of Nick who is always promptly on call for advice and guidance and he has become an key external partner of our business. Thank you Nick and Wilson Pateras.

We started working with the team at Wilson Pateras in 2017. They've helped us organise and manage our personal and business finances. Couldn't be happier with their lovely people, sound advice and attention to detail.

I cannot recommend Darren Trew, Principal, Wilson Pateras highly enough. He is more than a regular accountant. Engage him and you will receive a trusted confidante, a partner to your business and a dedicated professional who cares about your business success. No matter your financial circumstance, Darren will work 'with you' ensuring that you are protected. I often refer Darren business because I know he will look after my referral clients with the same diligence as he does my account. If you are looking for more than an accountant Darren Trew is the person you should ask for when you call Wilson

Wilson Pateras brands itself as a boutique company, and it really is just that - a boutique company more interested in its own brand image. The whole company becomes a self-serving machine, not focused on clients. We've experienced no returned or acknowledged emails or follow up calls several times. Several administrative services are out sourced to their third party subcontractors, and you always get the feeling that everyone is just too busy. They have a very annoying automated email system of contacting you for either unrelated topics, making you feel their service is impersonal, and/or chasing
