Andy Herricks

Tagged solicitor Andy Herricks

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I instructed Andy to help put proper governance arrangements in place for a long-established family land-holding company. The work involved preparing a Shareholders' Agreement and advising on a number of complex issues around share transfers, succession, minority protection and company governance. Throughout the process, Andy was knowledgeable, responsive and patient in answering what was, at times, a long list of questions. He took the time to explain the legal principles behind the drafting, challenged historic practices where necessary, and helped us reach a practical solution that protects both the company and its shareholders. I particularly appreciated that he welcomed questions and provided clear explanations, enabling us to make informed decisions rather than simply accepting legal wording at face value. We're now in a much stronger governance position than when we started and have a Shareholders' Agreement that is tailored to our company and its future. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Andy and Clough & Willis for corporate and shareholder legal advice.

Rebecca McCann

Tagged solicitor Rebecca McCann

Rebecca managed my interests in a share sale / restructuring transaction to facilitate my partial exit from a limited company. This was a fairly complex transaction involving setting up a new holding company, the transfer of shares, the sale of shares and new service agreements for the directors. To be honest I wasn't looking forward to working through the legal process to make this transaction happen but Rebecca (and the team at Forbes) made it seem easy. I can honestly say it was a pleasure to work with them and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Steph Crowther

Tagged solicitor Steph Crowther

James and his team were very good and got my flat purchase done pretty quickly, only complaint really is as some of my deposit was a gift they wanted the gifters life story as well as a fee to process this, despite this already all being approved by my mortage provider. Other than this they were very good and responded to most queries I had within an hour or so and much better than other solicitors than my friends had used.

Melanie Finlay

Tagged solicitor Melanie Finlay

This was our third time with Sweeney Miller and again we found them incredibly helpful, this time with our flat purchase. David, Mel, Madison and team were all informative, diligent, persistent and professional throughout, despite the seller’s solicitor being less than helpful at times. We are happy to recommend this firm for conveyancing and are grateful for their support through a trying situation.
