About Dune Financial Planning

Dune Financial Planning provides specialist independent financial advice to recipients and their representatives of clinical negligence and personal injury settlements.

We pride ourselves on being approachable and personable, and given our wide experience in this area, our clients can rest assured that they, and their financial planning, are in safe hands.

As independent financial planners we provide completely unbiased advice from the whole of market when recommending suitable financial planning solutions. The recommendations and service we provide is always centred around acting in our client’s best interests.
Our advisers have a breadth of experience working closely with the claimant and their legal team to provide pre-settlement advice on the structure of the settlement to be awarded. Once a case has settled, we provide advice to the claimant together with their trustees or deputy on a bespoke financial plan for the future. Being involved in the pre-settlement analysis allows our advisers a comprehensive understanding of the claimant’s needs and the background of the legal case, tailoring the advice to their specific needs.
