What our Clients Say...
Simon helped us complete the complicated transaction to the satisfaction of all shareholders. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.
Ian Bradley, Proprietor, MHS Boilers Limited
Throughout the long and tedious process Simon smoothed the way for us. Simon was very competent and professional at all times and frequently stood for no nonsense from the purchasers. All in all Simon helped us to complete a complicated transaction and in a friendly and personable fashion. I highly recommend his services.

Simon Porter acted as my solicitor during the recent sale of my dental practice. I found him to be highly professional and competent throughout the whole of the sale, keeping me fully informed and up to date at all times. I am in no doubt that the sale proceeded as smoothly as it did due to the efforts of Mr Porter.I would recommend him without hesitation.

“I was delighted to have Simon Porter supporting me in the sale of a chain of Bureau de Change shops last year.
This transaction involved a large overseas corporate purchaser with an internal team and a vendor with its own team of professional advisers acting on specific aspects of the due diligence and sale. Clear communication from Simon was key to the success of this transaction and also a firm hand to keep everyone in line.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon again.”
Paul Crozier, RSM Tenon
