Chris has been our trusted legal counsel since 2017 and his services have proved invaluable. Having worked on commercial contracts through to more sensitive shareholder negotiations, Chris has provided professional, pragmatic, and realistic solutions to often complex technical (as well as moral) issues. Above all, Chris gets it and he gets us. He's able to interpret our requirements quickly and effectively and will brief us back, filling in the gaps, giving absolute trust. In every engagement we've undertaken with Chris the outcome has always been favourable and that includes cost. I'm happy to recommend Chris' services.
Chris has provided us with expert advice since 2019, negotiating commercial agreements with key suppliers, assisting with the T's & C’s for our website as well as our Trade Marks for our brand. From day one, Chris has been professional, respectful and most of all trustworthy. We would highly recommend Chris’ services.

We have used Chris’ services since 2016. In that time, he has given us essential and professional advice around a wide variety of commercial focuses including corporate duties and potential shareholder agreements, purchases of businesses, company and ownership structures, intellectual property including trademarks, and employment. We have found our dealings with Chris to be extremely effective as he is able to use his knowledge and experience to not just meet our stated requirements but also identify other impacts that we may not have considered. He has been an important part of the growth of our operations, and we happily recommend Chris as a trusted business partner.
