DO NOT TRUST THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS

Very disappointed with this company as a financial advisory company. I have lost all of my retirement savings as I was mis-sold a loan note with the 79th group which went into administration the day after I transferred the funds for this investment. My broker did not bother to call me to let me know when this made public news in the UK. If he alerted me right away, I would have been able to cancel the funds transfer as the funds had not landed yet. It seems that their due diligence was not properly carried out whilst vetting these companies.
I would not take their advice ever again.

Godwin Capital

Was sold Godwin loan notes and assured they were protected through assets etc. this was not the case! The failure of Godwin Captial No. 8 it is evident there was no such protection in place. Terrible investment and advise and insufficient due diligence from Lawson.I have lost a signicant ammount of money.

Very disappointed with this company as a financial advisory company. I have lost most of my hard earning savings as I was mis-sold two loan notes with 2 different companies (Godwin Capital 8 and the 79th group) and both gone into administration. Both companies recommended by Lawsons Wealth were operating Ponzi style schemes. It seems that their due diligence was not properly carried out whilst vetting these companies.
I would not take their advice ever again.

Don't trust Lawsons Wealth

In February 2023 I was contacted by a Financial Broker, Charlie Hasberry with Lawsons Wealth and then a follow-up from Louis Mills with Capital 3PM out of the UK asking if I was interested in an investment in a property developer in the UK, Godwin Capital/Godwin Developments. I was specifically informed, in writing that Godwin had never defaulted or paid late on their coupons (interest)).
He provided the details and an application and, on 18 May 2023, I invested US$100,000 with a guaranteed interest of 10% per year over a 2 year period to be paid out semi-annually. These funds were transferred directly to Godwin’s bank account with Lloyds Bank, Gresham Street London, Account #00709483. My Loan Note is referenced as C8-3567.
As promised, my first payment of $5,000 was paid in November 2023 and the second was paid in May 2024. In November 2024, the Noteholders were informed that there would be a Noteholders resolution meeting to extend the notes for a period of 1 additional year for both the capital invested as well as interest thereon. This online Zoom call was a staged event to simply allow the directors of the company more time to pull funds out of the company to their personal benefit and use. Later, in June 2025 I received notification from Godwin that they were going into insolvency. Godwin actually filed insolvency for 4 of their programs - #6, #8, #20 and #21. MHA is leading the Insolvency proceedings along with Blue Water Capital as Trustee.
In retrospect, the Godwin management knew they were going to file for bankruptcy in October/November 2024, if not earlier, and this extension was to allow the management to clear out any and all funds they had scammed from investors, which number in the hundreds and, hundreds of millions of pound sterling. Bluewater Capital was assigned as the security trustee and they appointed MHA (BakerTilley) to oversee the insolvency proceedings. We received their report on 18 August.
This whole process was a scam and a Ponzi scheme on the same level as Bernie Madoff in the US. Myself and numerous other Noteholders have lodged a complaint with the UK Action Fraud team to seek their involvement to investigate this fraudulent activity. It is a smear on the UK investment market and your involvement is requested to get this resolved satisfactorily.

Very disappointed with this company as a financial advisory company. I was mis-sold two loan notes with 2 different companies that have both gone into administration.Both companies recommended by Lawsons Wealth were operating Ponzi style schemes, all good until the music stops. Little to no due diligence was carried out whilst vetting these companies. Security measures were simply not in place or even checked and the advisors appear to have be blinkered by high commissions.
I wouldnt take their advice ever again.

Mis-sold Godwin loan notes

Was sold Godwin loan notes, and thoroughly assured they were protected through assets etc. However with the failure of Godwin Captial No. 8 it is evident there was no such protection in place. Bad investment advise and insufficient due-diligence from Lawson. As such I have lost significant money.

Mislead and lies and missold Godwin…

Mislead and lies and missold Godwin Loan Notes, advisors are just shoddy salesmen who want their commission. Godwin has now gone into administration and all my money is gone. They don't do any of their own due diligence, just wasn't to sell their product for a commission. These people did not reply when I asked them for questions

A trustworthy alternative to traditional investments

Lawsons Wealth offers a very interesting range of alternative options to traditional investments, which are quite impacted by the current geopolitics.
They have competent and careful staff, which is quite appreciable.
It is a trustworthy organization.

Avoid like the plague

Avoid like the plague, they propose investment packages from a 3rd party (RL360) for which they have no control about and when problem arises they ghost their clients. Their consultants are as useful as an hammer with a screw and they are only interested in taking your money and nothing else. It's over six months that I have issues but they can't resolve because basic accounting is beyond their competences. I reconciled my account for them, but they have done absolutely nothing to put things in order so I can be charged extra fees as I result in default in their books
