Jim Truscott

Tagged solicitor Jim Truscott

...Jim and Jack dealt with the forming of a new company and with that a gift of shares and a share purchase forming part of a divorce settlement (so everything had the potential to be a bit antagonistic between the parties..) but these guys were on the ball, soaked up the necessary messing about but held their ground when they needed to. Great service.
