    The Best Financial Advice

    We used Chris at ACJ Financial and cannot recommend him enough. One of the first questions was about what we wanted to achieve, for us a life abroad having retired early was our dream . He dealt with our mortgage and organised our pensions, providing options of the best way to invest with forecasts of our future finances also allowing for the difference in taxation. Nothing was too much trouble and we always had full confidence in everything he did for us. We are now living our dream and in no uncertain terms it is only as a result of the help and advice we received from Chris at ACJ. If you are looking for financial advice we can’t recommend them highly enough.

    A Very Good Service and So Very Happy I Found ACJ

    After many years of worry around receiving financial advice after a series of bad outcomes and experiences I have found a safe home for my investments with Chris at ACJ. It's a journey and I feel looked after and kept in mind. Chris is professional and supportive and a pleasure to do business with. I trust him and this is vital for me. I look forward to many years of financial advice with Chris and his company.

    World Class Advice and Service

    We had a situation where all the advisers that we spoke to shied away from what was a challenging situation. Most knew that it would be hard work to find a solution to our remortgage situation. From our first interaction with Chris and the team we were told not to worry and they would find a solution.

    Chris - We can’t thank you and the team enough and I recommend everyone to speak to you as you are a true professional with natural people skills- something that is often lacking these days.

    Experts in Retirement planning

    ACJ recently supported my and my wife in understanding our retirement options. Chris was very friendly, immediately put us at ease and produced a comprehensive retirement plan giving us the confidence to know that we could afford to retire on the income we expected. Highly recommend Chris to anybody who is approaching retirement. Their ongoing advice and regular updates since have been invaluable and I am sure we will be working together for a long time to come.

    Excellent service

    Amazing service from ACJ. They helped me to understand my pensions in a simple language that I could understand. I now feel I have total control over my retirement, savings and other money matters.

    Nothing is too much bother and I feel I can talk to them about any doubts or issues I have. Thank you Chris.

    Straightforward, Knowledgeable and Professional

    Chris has looked after us for a while now replacing a longstanding and reliable professional, who I had used for a very long time. Someone who I had total trust and confidence in, who decided to retire.

    Personal relationships, trust and confidence are so important in financial matters, so such a change can be daunting.

    Chris made the switch very easy, it quickly became apparent that he knows what he is doing, is professional, trustworthy and a thoroughly nice guy to boot. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough and from this sceptic that’s a big vote of confidence!

PROuD TO Support the ourjay foundation

We are proud to have selected the OurJay Foundation as our charity partner, and continue to raise as much as we can through our client referral schemes and events. The OurJay Foundation aims to raise awareness of the importance of having 24/7 publicly accessible automated external defibrillators. They also aim to raise funds to purchase and install accessible defibrillators across Rugby, Warwickshire and further afield to get these vital accessible defibrillators into as many publicly accessible sites as possible.

So far this year, we have hosted our third Annual Charity Quiz Night and in July 2026, we are hosting a Self-Defence Charity Event for Women and Girls with the support of G-Force Martial Arts. Tickets and further details are available via our social media pages.

In previous years, alongside our Annual Charity Quiz Nights, we have organised Fitness Fundraisers, CPR demonstrations and Chris completed an 80-mile charity cycle, visiting as many defibrillator locations as possible in a single day. To date we have raised over £4,500 for the charity supporting the installation of 3 defibrillators.

We aim to improve potential life-saving skills in the community, while raising additional funds for the charity to support the installation of as many of these life saving devices across our community.
