Highly recommend

I highly recommend Paul’s expertise, pragmatism and strategic approach. He is careful to understand exactly what you need and provide flexible and thoughtful solutions to achieve your goal whilst minimising risk and stress. I found Paul very approachable, open and warm, and his advice was always clear, practical and wise.

Excellent outcome

We were guided most skilfully by the legal team. Gavin Faber and Hannah Turner made all the relevant negotiations smoothly and in a timely fashion with the Probate office and HMRC as well as the opposing solicitors. Their negotiations led to an excellent outcome. We have been most impressed with their skills, diligence and advice and are very happy to recommend them highly.

Innovative and commercial

I have worked with Chris and the Gateley team on several high profile matters. Their legal advice is innovative and commercially focused, and I have always found them to be incredibly responsive. Chris and the Gateley team have become an integral part of our in house legal function.

invaluable advice

We have developed an excellent relationship with the Gateley Vinden team, in particular through a recent assignment, where their specialist advice was invaluable & as a consequence really assisted in the Funder being fully repaid.

Really important professional advisor relationship

We have worked with Gateley since shortly after LDC first invested in late 2017 and they have become a really important professional advisor relationship for us. We quickly came to trust their legal support in our acquisition programme, and the same was true in the preparation for and execution of the investment by Graphite. I cannot fault their work ethic and expertise and we look forward to working with them as we continue to carry out further acquisitions now and in the future.

Fantastic service. After a bad experience with a solicitor when we bought our first home, Gateley Legal were fantastic. They keep you informed throughout the process, offer advice beyond what is expected and are extremely pleasant. Thank you to Alison and the team.

Located in the city centre, our Nottingham team work with businesses and organisations across Nottinghamshire whether SMEs or corporates, start-ups or established businesses.

Our clients have changed and we have moved with them. We work with clients from start-ups and SMEs through to large corporates and public sector organisations. What has stayed the same has been our focus on helping our clients to thrive and prosper. That commercial, entrepreneurial spirit goes to the heart of our business and shapes our story.
