Friendly, Helpful but Clear

I've had the pleasure of working with Louis and Ian on a retained basis around employment law queries and general advice. Whether it is just a quick query, a complex case support or anything in between both are always quick to support, a pleasure to talk to and clear on advice and guidance. They give a good balance of the legal aspects and commercial considerations which is the perfect balance. Knowledgeable, efficient but most importantly a pleasure to speak to. They additionally try hard to know our business, which goes a long way to giving informed advice.

Saved our business

Put very simply, Ian saved our business and ensured that we can continue to care for vulnerable people. I approached him at an extremely delicate time when we were faced with administration and had been let down badly by our former solicitor. His level of service was extraordinary, guiding us through a very difficult situation, managing our expectations and securing a settlement in our favour that provides security, stability and enables us to build for the future. If you are experiencing a commercial difficulty I strongly suggest you speak to Ian, I can�t recommend him highly enough.

We've used Nash & Co for many years, in particular for those tricky employment law issues that arise. They provide a professional and friendly service for us and our clients, always explaining matters which are sometimes quite technical, ensuring all parties understand points of law. Particular thanks recently goes to Ian, Louis, Kayleigh and Roslyn - we really appreciate your support.

Nash & Co have served me well for every single matter I've needed. Ranging from commercial law, personal property purchases, commercial dispute resolution and UK GDPR. I cannot put the quality of the services Nash & Co provide into words. I have had the insane pleasure to work with partners Austin Blackburn, Ian Grimshaw and the highly trained solicitors Jamie Carr, David Jones, Grace Courts and more. I have been amazed at the understanding every employee of Nash & Co have over every unique case I bring to them. Cannot recommend them more for businesses, or personal matters of any kind. It is a night and day difference working with Nash & Co, to any competing firm in the surrounding areas. There is to put it simply, no one better in the entirety of the South West. Keep it up Nash & Co!
