I have been using another legal firm in Milton Keynes for several years , however the transaction was purchasing a company so decided to approach healds for another quotation From the initial contact to a very complicated and protracted conclusion the company especially David and Alex have been first class . I was even pleasantly surprised by their final bill. I would not hesitate in recommending this company and have already referred friends and work associates to them Do not hesitate to use them First class

Alex and David were outstanding

We choose Heald initially because of locality and a very positive and responsive initial conversation, having talked with another 2 firms prior. Heald from day one understood us completely, and were always quick to help with anything we needed and progress. They worked quickly and communicated clearly. Alex and David were able to understand the most complex of documents and translate them into terms which I understood. Most importantly, the communication, attitude, knowledge, speed and response at all times was impressive. They offered advice based on experience of previous situations and giving us the strongest but fairest representation possible. On many occasions agreement clauses within the deal we were undertaking looked fair or standard; Heald would always be astute in educating and warning me to their implications. Nothing was ever missed. Fleeting, almost hidden, but important details within 50 page documents would be picked up and discussed, and the comprehensiveness of the service was something we quickly become accustomed too. I always felt like we were in good hands and never worried about things being missed. When the pace of the arrangement picked up, so did Alex, and we'd be exchanging emails late at night at times. He was always a pleasure to work with, which is imperative when spending so much time, and working very closely, together. The locality was important for us initially, but it didn't need to be. We could have met in person but it was never really required. If you are looking for a company to represent you in mergers for SMB; I seriously doubt you would find another firm like this anywhere in the country. The value for money was outstanding for the service received. I have no doubt that if we had gone anywhere but Heald, we would not have reached the best possible deal on both sides. I want to sincerely thank you, in particular Alex, for the absolutely exceptional work you did for us, and hope this review helps anyone looking for representation feel like they have found the right firm for them.

We used Headlaw for the sale of our business. They kept me sane during the process and the fees were reasonable. I would not hesitate to use them again.

I cannot commend David and Alex highly enough. The recent sale of my company shares was an incredibly long and protracted process. They fully understood my requirements and always had my best interests at the forefront of any advice that they gave me. In spite of many difficult negotiations, the sale was finally completed and I am extremely grateful for their expertise in getting the deal completed. I can't recommend them highly enough and will not hesitate to use them again in the future.
