Outstanding service

I had an urgent workplace issue and was seen to and advised within hours of contacting Nash & Co. I was directed to Karen Bussell, who went above and beyond any expectations I had for a solicitor. It was clear immediately that not only does she have an incredible depth of understanding of employment law but the ability to implement this knowledge in quick meaningful succession whilst clearly explaining the rationale and reasoning. I am deeply grateful for her compassion and understanding during an exceedingly difficult time for me, I truly did feel she had my best interest in mind throughout the entire time and her guidance and support was utterly invaluable. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Company & Commercial

Excellent, full-service solicitor experience

My family have used Nash since c. 2003, and during those few decades I've become a full customer, taking care of all my personal and business legal needs. Running a small business has required the services of legal experts who not only understand how the law works, but can see the company through the eyes of those it deals with. I've had to navigate issues like holding companies, share buy-backs, due diligence, litigation, human resources cases, and a number of personal / domestic matters. I've always felt very well supported and by knowledgeable professionals who are always accessible. I look forward to continuing to use Nash & Co going forwards, confident of excellent services.

Karen was able to help me a lot

Karen Bussell was a real help to me. It was a tough time being made redundant, but in the situation, Karen was able to help me a lot with the agreement.
