Regarding one successful multi-million pound share sale Phil Gray, MD and a founder of Watts Commercial comments:
“HM3 Legal lawyers have looked after us over the years and their combined disciplines brought the deal over the line. Their Head of Corporate law, Anne Scheland, set the scene in a direct and honest way, and I appreciated that. This was a complex and life-changing deal; her advice expertly prepared the ground.”
