"Two colleagues and I recently made the decision to sell a business of which we were directors and shareholders. The sale comprised the company and a large commercial property which it owned.We had been clients of CooperBurnett for a number of years, so we instructed them to act for us on the sale. The negotiations became, in our view, unnecessarily protracted and complex and occasionally heated, but Victoria kept her cool and ensured that the advisers on both sides kept focused on the essentials."

“We found CooperBurnett to be friendly, professional and extremely approachable. The whole team worked well together and we always felt well supported. Emails and calls were always answered promptly and we never felt as though we were being a nuisance, although I suspect that, at times, we were! We had absolute confidence in all the team throughout the whole process.”

“Our key contact is Oliver Bussell and he’s brilliant; very tenacious but always professional and he gets things done. In terms of the advice he gives us, Oliver very clearly lays out our options and the likely consequences of us taking those options. It’s a very pragmatic approach and helps our decision-making as a business. I always enjoy my interactions with Oliver - we’ve established a great working relationship."
