Huge thank you (again)!
One of the best qualities of Iain is his patience and ability to explain in plain simple terms and not use legal jargon where not needed. This is helped by his timely responses and friendly approach always. Would recommend, without question.

Best commercial solicitor practice I have used
Iain's knowledge of legal & commercial frameworks is unrivalled and as a company owner I have used a number of legal practices in the past. Expect open, honest and pragmatic advice that help facilitate a deal. Iain also excels in strategic thought leadership, mapping out variables and possible scenarios to aid decision making.

Exceptional Service Always
'Pro-active, speedy and easy to understand' is why I have always appointed Iain Garfield for the past 17 years. From purchasing and disposing of estate agency businesses to providing advice on development projects and much more. Iain has always been my first port of call for any legal matters. He's a great 'sounding board' and very approachable. Thank you again Iain for your assistance over the past few months.

Reassuring Ongoing Support
With a simple conversation, Iain had interpreted my business concern, added clarity and offered a clearly defined solution to fix it.
He also appreciated that in this instance there wasn't a lot of notice for our requirement for his support. The response as always was timely, professional and delivered a newly created document fit for purpose. It's reassuring to know you have solid and streamlined advice when most needed, especially when under pressure.
