About Research Independent Financial Services

Research Independent Financial Services Ltd was established in 1991 by two experienced client focused Directors who are now both enjoying their well-earned retirement.

ABOUT US

Client focused ethos

In 1994 the present Managing Director, Peter Page, joined the firm and in January 2000 we moved into our new offices located in a fine late Victorian town house in a prime location in the west end of Darlington.

The office has many period features with a contemporary décor and benefits from its close proximity to major transport links and the added benefit of client parking at the rear of the building, this may be accessed by driving the length of the lane along Woodland Road South Back which is off Vane Terrace. Our staff will be happy to guide any clients trying to find the car park with or without the aid of satellite navigation. As well as being easily accessible from the A1M, Darlington is of course on the main East Coast railway line and a 10 minute taxi drive to the office from the station.

The client focused ethos, which was one of the original cornerstones when Research was established is still a primary objective today, as well as offering our clients a value proposition.

We look forward to welcoming you at your next visit to Research.
