As part of our continuing commitment to client service, we have recently joined fy International, an international association of independent accountants and lawyers, to provide a more comprehensive service in an increasingly global economy. Coveney Nicholls has its roots in Croydon, over 60 years ago. Jeff Kelly and John Mabey both did their training at the firm in the early 1980s before going on to post qualification experience at what is now Price Waterhouse Coopers. After around 10 years with the major accounting firms, Jeff and John decided to return to the firm and combine their ‘Big Four’ skills and experience with a small firm personal service from a new base in Reigate providing a corporate and a private client service practice. In 1999 we established a specialist practice in medical accounting after acquiring Deloitte’s medical services division in Gatwick. Our services are now used by over 40 GP practices in London and the South East. Sue Beaton transferred to the firm following the acquisition and has been instrumental in making the medical accounting service a success.
