Client feedback

 

“Our business was very niche and our exit required a carefully thought through bespoke approach. James managed the sale and the shareholders with calm and definite advice throughout.

We achieved an excellent result that matched the differing exit needs of all 6 shareholders and ensured the business could continue to grow and succeed in the new corporate environment. 

There is no doubt whatsoever that James enhanced every aspect to the often difficult technical and emotional journey that we as business owners had embarked upon.”
