“Keith Melling and his team have provided invaluable guidance to Next Generation Travel on a wide range of matters, from company formation to management share incentive schemes, acquisitions, and complex issues like trademark infringements. Their advice is always clear, comprehensive and tailored to our business needs, allowing us to navigate legal challenges with confidence. We have worked with major Manchester based law firms in the past, but the level of service and expertise we receive from Napthens, under the leadership of Keith, rival those of much larger firms, and at a much more competitive price.”
