Services
Life Insurance
Life insurance pays a lump sum to your loved ones if you die during the policy term, helping them cover the mortgage, household bills and everyday costs. Bakerhill compares policies from a wide range of UK insurers to find the right level of cover at a competitive price, whether you need single, joint or family cover. We can also help you place your policy in trust, so the payout reaches your family quickly without waiting for probate.
Critical Illness Cover
Critical illness cover pays a lump sum if you're diagnosed with a serious illness covered by your policy, such as certain cancers, heart attack or stroke. The money is yours to use however you need, from paying off the mortgage to covering time off work while you recover. Definitions vary between insurers, so Bakerhill takes you through the differences clearly and helps you choose cover that fits your circumstances. It can be taken on its own or alongside life insurance.
Income protection
Income protection pays you a regular monthly income if illness or injury stops you working, until you're able to return or the policy ends. It's one of the most valuable covers for anyone who relies on their salary, and especially for the self-employed, who have no employer sick pay to fall back on. Bakerhill helps you set the right waiting period, benefit amount and policy length, so the cover matches your outgoings and any support you already have through work.
Private medical insurance
Private medical insurance gives you faster access to private diagnosis and treatment, with more choice over your specialist, hospital and appointment times. Bakerhill compares plans from leading UK health insurers and explains the options that affect cover and cost, including excess levels, outpatient limits and hospital lists. We arrange individual and family policies, as well as group schemes for businesses that want to look after their team.
Business Protection
Business protection keeps your company stable if a key person or business owner dies or falls seriously ill. Bakerhill arranges key person insurance, shareholder protection and relevant life cover, helping you protect profits, keep control of the business and look after your team in a tax-efficient way. We work with company directors, partners and business owners to structure cover around how the business actually runs.

Thanks to Matt for providing a great service - you really took your time to understand our exsiting policies and what was and wasn't important to us for the critical illness and health insurance cover. It was really refreshing to get an impartial bit of advice on the best covers we should go for, it really felt like that came first rather then the products he had availble. We ended up taking out some fantastic policies with double the cover for less money, couldnt be happier! Having been a customer of his now for over 7 years I couldnt recommend him more highly and do refer him to friends and family all the time!!

Matt was super helpful in helping me to set up the most appropriate cover myself and my family, as result of which, we feel more secure and confident for the future. He took all the time that I needed to find just the right product, and at a price point that I was comfortable with; a really excellent service.

Matt Baker is fantastic! He is super responsive, very thorough and offers clear advice. I’ve dealt with Matt directly, and he has helped me organise the necessary insurance coverage to protect myself - and my loved ones - if the worst happens. He’s also really hands-on and reassuring if things go wrong in the coverage application process. I’d recommend Matt and his colleagues to anyone.

My wife is delighted that I now have life insurance.
Nico was extremely helpful throughout the process, always available and always quick to respond to questions. He offered to have zoom conversations in the evenings so that my wife and I could both be present.
When I looked at a comparison quote, Nico was fair and honest about what my options were and the cost difference. I felt he was really on our side to get the best package for us.
In the end we went for Relevant Life insurance cover for both me and my wife, paid for by my company which is tax efficient.
I will strongly recommend Nico to anyone who I hear requires his services.

Matt was amazing from start to finish. He really listened to everything I needed and answered all of my questions clearly and patiently. He managed to find the right life and critical illness cover within my budget, which I really appreciated. The whole process was quick, smooth and perfectly tailored to my situation. It genuinely felt like a bespoke service rather than a standard policy. If anyone is looking for insurance advice, Matt is definitely the person to speak to. Highly recommended.

I can't recommend Baker Hill enough, had a very good experience with them. I actually changed all my insurance providers based on Matt's recommendations and have been a pretty happy customer since. Their detailed approach to explaining various insurance products was really helpful. I look forward to using their services for other investment products too.

Sofia was brilliant in helping me sort out my various life insurance needs and enabling me to consolidate and improve on my existing policies. She took the time to chat through my needs, run through the options and – crucially – made recommendations based on my lifestyle and circumstances. She took control of the application process, asking me questions when needed. Where options were available, Sofia explained the pros and cons of each, and once the application was submitted she kept me up to date with the status.
I couldn't recommend her services more highly.

Sofia provided exceptional service in helping me secure life & critical illness insurance. After unsuccessful attempts with other brokers due to my medical history, Sofia made the entire process clear and straightforward. Through just one consultation and a few emails, she made the whole process very smooth. Highly recommend Bakerhill!

Matt was incredibly helpful when discussing the different insurances. He was incredibly professional and easy to get hold of. We had the initial conversations and received quotes of him. He later followed up when we were closer to completing in order to get the deals we wanted. We were recommended by a friend and I would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks Matt.

We already had insurance but after Matt had given us a free review, we found that it was set up incorrectly that if we did need to claim that we likely wouldn’t have been paid out.
Thankfully Matt sorted this out all for us hassle free and was so patient answering all of our questions. Not only that but he was considerably cheaper.
So grateful for everything he has done thank you very much and will highly recommend.

I have worked with Bakerhill Associates for a number of years and have delt with several of their advisors.
I have always found them a pleasure to deal with as they are friendly, informative and knowledgeable.
My latest dealings were with Matt who arranged several insurance products for myself and my family. He was very attentive and kept me regularly informed. I received correspondence from Matt before the provider, every time.
Matt is very punctual and definitely wants to help. He is not forceful at all like some other companies can be and always had my best interests in mind.
I would highly recommend the company and always share their details.
Thanks again Matt!

I recently took out a private health care policy for my family of 5.
My wife had conducted online research and recieved a number of quotes for cover.
I spoke with Matthew at Bakerhill Associates and he was able to find us a policy with a greater level of cover at a better price.
As Matthew explained to me, Bakerhill can access all available products on the market so they WILL find the best deal for you.
Matthew was very professional and communicative, and most importantly, he had all the answers to my wife's questions around the policy. His knowledge of the products is second to none.
I will be using Bakerhill Associates going forward for private healthcare and other products such as income protection and life cover as I have absolute faith in Matthew to provide the cover I need at the best possible prices.

Nicolas was very helpful, professional and efficient throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend him and the company for being proactive at suggesting things I'd not considered. Our previous Insurance solutions had become outdated with the addition of 3 children in the last 6 years and he pointed out a number of improvements I could make to my policies to make them work harder for me. I have no doubts in recommending Nicolas and his team to provide a thorough and considered service. Thanks!

I was recently recommend Bakerhill Associates and first was offered a free review of my then current insurance. Within a matter of an hour or 2 the adviser Matt rang me back and said he could provide me with the exact same policy bu for £15/month cheaper.
Huge savings! But since we had first taken that policy our circumstances had changed and that cover was not really beneficial to us. After a thorough conversation about the best way to protect us and our son, we agreed to split policies with 5 times the amount of protection and over 20 years (rather than the 5 existing). I now feel we are well and fully protected should anything arises but by someone who cares and knows his customers. Impeccable service, could not fault, and we've already pencilled our next review in a couple years time. Highly recommended

I was recommended Bakerhill Associates by my mortgage advisor Paul Collinson. Matt dealt and helped us with obtaining a suitable life insurance as our current one was not suitable for our needs. Matt was very knowledgeable and responsive and would always try to fit in to my busy schedule. He guided me through step by step, making it easy to understand how the insurance worked which I never had from my previous insurer. Matt made the whole process smooth. Definitely would recommend Matt to my family and friends.
Thanks Matt for your help.
