I wanted to take the opportunity and send a big thank you to you, Rebecca and Daisy. I have never before experienced a situation similar to the one I found myself in recently, and I must say having you in my court made all the difference (and I won’t exaggerate if I say it helped me sleep at night).

I still remember when we first met almost 23 years ago now (come May/June) in your office in Leeds and am therefore delighted that all those years later and after the help you have provided at different points, that you and your colleagues have played such a big part in the sale process to the EOT and completion.

Very impressed with their experience from start to finish. The legal team were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and professional throughout. The security staff were particularly polite and approachable, making visitors feel comfortable as soon as they arrived.

A special mention to Alex Hall who went above and beyond in her assistance to get our deal over the line. In what ended up being very difficult protracted negotiations, Alex made herself available to us throughout and worked evenings and I am sure some weekends to assist us. She is a very valuable asset to the business, and we cannot speak highly enough of.

Recently both Alex Hall and Hayley Blackburn were fantastic, among other members of the team at Blacks, when we used their services during the sale of our business. Making what was a very stressful process as simple as possible.

I couldn’t recommend Alex Hall enough. Alex gave a very personal service from day one. Nothing was too much trouble for Alex, from giving regular updates on the sale of my business to making sure I fully understood all the legal jargon.
