Settlement and Contract

Alex at Clarke & Son was a pleasure to work with whilst agreeing my settlement agreement and new contract with my previous employer when I started my own consultancy.

Approachable, friendly and pragmatic, Alex was very effective at keeping momentum going when communication on the other side was less than effective.

Highly recommended!

Well 5 stars I believe tells one what you need to know. Great service and knowledge from Mark Chapman.
My only gripe is the long wait to get an appointment to see Mr Chapman. Where my Ex could get one with hers quickly. Maybe that tells you something! I am being picky here Lol.

The team at Clarke & Sons are fantastic. We have worked very closely with Nigel Tranah on a number of transactions and he is fantastic. We always know we are getting sound advice, under pressure of deadlines he can absolutely perform and make what feels like miracles happen!

I can't recommend Nigel and the firm enough.
