Sale of property by charitable trust

5

During what proved to be a long-drawn-out and complex related pair of property transactions Brachers were both professional and tenacious.
The Brachers team worked hard to keep some pretty tardy counter-parties on their toes while providing a good all-round client service to the trust and its service providers.
