I've worked with Aleksandra at Johnston Smillie for the past two years and have been so impressed by her work - no mucking about, straight to the point, knows exactly what I'm talking about before I've even voiced it - highly recommended!

We engaged Johnston Smillie in March 2020 at the start of the pandemic and they've supported us though the toughest year we've experienced since starting the company. In addition to our day to day accounting they've managed our JRS claims and helped us with funding applications.
Debbie, Kris and the team have had our back throughout; we kept our heads above water and we couldn't have managed it without them. Having an accountant like this supporting your company doesn't just save you time or money, it can keep you in business.

They don’t know absolutely nothing about rules in this Country. They can’t help nobody because they don’t have no authority to anything. An ordinary amateur!

David and the team at Johnston Smillie have been looking after us and our business since 2006. Papilio is a small family run restaurant but running a business is hard, particularly now, and it would be impossible without the help provided by David and his team with Tax, VAT, Year End Accounts, Payroll, Staff Pensions etc., general accounting advice and help with software packages – the list is endless. I have been blown away by the support provided during the current COVID-19 pandemic, from the very first day of lockdown. The help, guidance, superb Coronavirus regular updates (Lea, David and

I am not a serial reviewer, so it takes something special to prompt me to take to the keyboard. Over a number of years, through thick and thin, through ups and downs Johnston Smillie has been there for me – timely advice, friendly guidance and of course, getting my accounts over the line. Their friendship and patience through difficult times has meant more to me than they could ever imagine. I am ever grateful for that. Someone asked me recently what I look for in an accountant – it is professionalism of course. But it’s more. It’s up to the minute insight into the policy environment (their

When starting my business the accounting and tax side was a little daunting to me. I was referred to Johnson Smillie and I am so happy I contacted them. Having my accounts handled by them gives me so much comfort and it truly feels like I have a full team of experienced professionals supporting me and my company. Any problems or concerns I have are handled immediately and professionally. I strongly recommend the services of Johnston Smillie!”

Johnston Smillie have been my accountants for several years now. They are a team of highly professional, knowledgeable, and helpful people. Regardless of the situation, nothing seems to be too much trouble for them to handle. Competitive fees and a very quick turn around on most areas of work mean that I can relax in the knowledge that everything to do with my limited company is being handled as it should!
