What Clients are saying about Stewart & Kett

Stewart & Kett came highly recommended to my wife and I by a friend. We established a good rapport and felt very comfortable with Cynthia; we weren’t treated like “just another client” or talked down to, which was important to us. Over the years, our needs have changed from simple accounting and tax related work to financial/estate planning, advice for our small business and implementing regular financial reviews with our broker. Cynthia’s ability to explain complex financial matters to us in easy, understandable terms has been invaluable.

J. S., retired corporate executive and business owner

We were very pleased with Stewart & Kett’s thorough approach, attention to detail and their entire process.

L. and L. K., retired business owners

We can’t say enough about the excellent counsel and professional advice we received from Stewart & Kett! Their genuine concern for our family’s welfare, and caring, thoughtful approach to our financial planning is what impressed us most. Their quality of service is above and beyond what we’ve experienced with other firms. The best part about working with the people at S&K is the personal connection: during our interactions, we always felt that we were more than just another client. Without reservation, we’ve enthusiastically recommended their services to our close friends and relatives.

C. L., educator, and C. L., professor and author

Cynthia takes the time to get to know you and your financial goals, and makes complicated financial information easy to understand, even pleasant! After a few sessions with her, our financial lives were better organized, and our path forward very clear. We've been able to achieve more than we expected with her big picture analysis, financial planning fluency and guidance. I’ve recommended her to several friends. Working with Cynthia is like having an expert, coach and cheerleader all at once.

S. F. and S. M., journalists

S&K’s money makeover for the Toronto Star set me on the right financial path to pay off my mortgage in record time.

S.C., author

Cynthia has such integrity. She truly cares about my family’s well-being; I appreciate that even more than the excellent advising, which is always first class.

My family and I appreciate the objectivity S&K’s advice-only approach brings to our unique circumstances and finances. They’ve been with us to help plan career changes, marriage, post-secondary education, retirement, and our estate. They prepare our tax returns and handle communications with the Canada Revenue Agency on our behalf. They’re an invaluable personal finance resource.

J. D., investment executive

Dear Cynthia, Your keeping an eye on our finances give us so much peace of mind, and it's a treat working with you.

SG & GG, retirees
