Frequently asked questions

 

Here are a few questions people often ask when seeking financial advice.

What does a financial adviser do exactly?

A financial adviser helps you make informed decisions about your money and future plans. Advice may cover pensions, investments, retirement planning, protection policies and inheritance tax. The goal is to help you organise your finances and create a strategy aligned with your personal objectives.

What is the average fee for a financial adviser?

Fees vary depending on the type of advice required and the complexity of your circumstances. Some advisers charge fixed fees, while others may charge a percentage of assets or an hourly rate. A reputable firm should always explain charges clearly before any work begins.

Can I speak to a financial adviser for free?

Yes, many firms offer an initial consultation at no cost. We offer a free consultation. This allows you to discuss your circumstances, ask questions and understand how the advice process works. It also allows both parties to decide whether working together would be a good fit.

What is an independent financial adviser?

An independent financial adviser can recommend solutions from across the wider market rather than being limited to a specific provider or panel. This broader approach allows recommendations to be based on your needs, objectives and circumstances rather than a restricted range of products.

Can an adviser help with my pension?

Yes. Pension advice can include reviewing existing arrangements, consolidating pensions, planning retirement income and assessing investment options. Professional guidance can help ensure your retirement savings remain aligned with your future plans, attitude to risk and desired lifestyle.

Is it worth paying for professional advice?

For many people, yes. Professional guidance can help you avoid costly mistakes, improve financial organisation and identify opportunities that may otherwise be overlooked. The value often comes from having a clear strategy and ongoing support rather than focusing solely on investment performance.

How do I choose the right IFA?

Look for someone with relevant qualifications, strong client reviews and experience in the areas where you need help. It is also important to find a professional you feel comfortable speaking with, as successful advice relationships are often built over many years.

What is the difference between independent and restricted advice?

Independent advice considers products and solutions from across the market. Restricted advice is limited to certain providers, products or areas of expertise. Understanding this distinction can help you decide which approach is most suitable for your personal financial circumstances and objectives.

Do I need advice if I am already retired?

Retirement often brings important financial decisions around income, investments, tax and estate planning. Professional guidance can help ensure your assets continue working efficiently, while providing reassurance that your plans remain aligned with your needs throughout retirement.

What is a red flag when choosing an adviser?

Be cautious of anyone who guarantees investment returns, pressures you into making quick decisions or is unclear about fees. A trustworthy professional should explain recommendations clearly, provide transparent information and take time to understand your circumstances before offering advice.

What are your fees?

Sterling & Law has a transparent fee structure and process that has three stages. First, we meet to understand your financial goals and current position, and this consultation is free. Next, we create a personalized financial plan, charging a percentage of your investment. Finally, we charge a percentage of your funds under management as part of our ongoing service.
