Value for money advice

I have worked with Matthew Fretten and his team for many years. Throughout that time I have received practical, pragmatic, honest, relevant and value for money advice on every occasion. The team is friendly, approachable and obviously close knit. There are no egos, just a commitment to excellent client service and to each other.

Phenomenal throughout the pandemic

Matthew Fretten and the team have been phenomenal this year throughout the pandemic, and when the rest of the corporate world shut down Frettens were still at the end of the phone and able to take care of our legal needs through their portal and e-sign capabilities.

Frettens Solicitors have supported Decorum since 2017 and have advised us through every major milestone, including UK rail contracts, private equity investment rounds, and ultimately our acquisition by JR East. Their advice has always been commercial, pragmatic, and grounded in a deep understanding of our business. Matthew Fretten has led our relationship throughout and is an exceptional trusted adviser. Zoe Watson has been fundamental to our success, particularly during the JR East transaction, and her commitment and attention to detail were invaluable. More recently, Paul Longland has joined the team supporting us and has already made a very positive impact. We look forward to continuing our long-standing partnership as Frettens expand their commercial team and support us through further acquisitions, contracts, and international growth. Highly recommended.
