Recommendation is one way, research on the Internet is another. The main thing is to ask those you TRUST to give you direction. I have an excellent planner that had been recommended by a longtime trusted neighbor/friend. Maybe I'm lucky cause I've heard of others being burned by oh my cousin is a financial planner or broker (DON'T CONFUSE BROKERS FOR FINANCIAL PLANNERS!!!). If that's the recommendation given than steer clear. Best of luck!!!

I myself am a financial adviser and have an independent office. I happily assist in helping with anyone's finances, for a small fee.

What type of financial advice do you need? If it's paying off debt, you'd do better to manage that yourself. Check out one of Dave Ramsey's books (Financial Peace or Your Total Money Makeover).
If your looking for investment advice, look for a Certified Financial Planner (CFP). Make sure you know up-front how they get paid. Some make a commission off your investments, which can skew their advice. I'd only pay a flat-fee or hourly rate.

If you are in the UK you could try Citizens Advice Bureau or the Consumer Credit Council. They;re set up to help people that need them.

Try this web site http://www.unbiased.co.uk/
Don't go to a high street bank or building society as they will only try and sell you their products.
Always use an IFA (in the UK)

Ask friends and family for recommendations.

Train yourself to be your own financial advisor.

Good luck
