Immigration M&A

We wanted to write to say a proper thank you for the work that you and your team carried out for us. Selling our company was a daunting prospect but from the moment we first spoke with Alex and then with Matt and Harry, we felt confident that we were in good hands. Everyone we dealt with was professional and knowledgeable and the work was handled in a calm and efficient manner. We were particularly grateful as we approached the signing of the contracts as this could have been quite stressful but neither of us were the slightest bit concerned at any point as we knew that you were able to manage it on our behalf.

The team acts like an extension of our leadership team, not an external legal provider. Their joined-up approach across corporate and employment matters is exactly what we needed.

Responsive, commercial and genuinely invested in understanding our business. The team consistently delivers practical advice that makes a real difference to our decisions.

They understand that my business, investments and family are all connected. Having advisers who can support every aspect of my affairs gives me confidence to focus on growth.

Alex and Lucinda at Herrington Carmichael advised me on the sale of my IFA business, supporting me throughout due diligence, negotiation of the sale agreement and completion. They were responsive, pragmatic and commercially minded throughout what was a significant transaction for me personally. I always felt that they understood what mattered to me, identified and explained the important issues clearly, and kept the process moving towards a successful completion. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other business owners considering a sale.

Shennind was incredibly clear and thorough throughout; he took the time to properly understand how my app works before advising, which made a real difference given how specific and safeguarding-sensitive my situation was. The advice note he produced was detailed, practical, and gave me genuine confidence in the decisions I was making. I'd recommend him without hesitation.

We were pleased to trust Jamie, Will, and the wider Herrington Carmichael team with our group’s three combined loan facilities with a value of circa £7m. They delivered efficient, strategic advice under a compressed timeline, navigating complex transactional hurdles. Jamie and Will worked collaboratively with my fellow directors and I, as well as the broker, to negotiate key milestones. The security documents involved an intricate suite of facility documentation, which they handled with impressive turnaround times, ensuring clarity throughout the process.

At Arose Finance, we’re delighted to have worked with Herrington Carmichael to deliver a tailored development exit finance solution for this client. Like many SME property developers, the client required additional time to realise the value of completed units while refinancing expensive existing debt. With three borrowing entities and a complex security profile, the transaction required carefully structured property finance and close collaboration between broker, lender and solicitors.

Jamie and Will were exceptional throughout. They worked closely with us to navigate the complexities of the portfolio refinancing, bringing a pragmatic, commercial approach and a real commitment to meeting the required completion timeframe. Their responsiveness and attention to detail were instrumental in achieving a strong outcome for the client.

A fantastic result, and I look forward to working with Jamie, Will and the wider Herrington Carmichael team again soon.

Aadil and the team were excellent and very professional in their efforts to get the legalities to a swift conclusion which is much appreciated. We have used HC for drawing up wills etc and are very impressed with their high standards and professionalism, I highly recommend.

The Real Estate team at Herrington Carmichael were excellent in dealing with this transaction right from the initial negotiations. They delivered their expertise in a pragmatic and commercial way emphasising the importance of having a legal team with the relevant industry knowledge and experience in complex renewable energy and infrastructure agreements. They acted efficiently and responsively and maintained a professional approach throughout the transaction particularly when dealing with unexpected requirements and stringent timescales.

Liz Hailey has been my primary point of contact at Herrington Carmichael and has become a trusted adviser to me and my clients. Liz possesses unparalleled legal knowledge and offers a unique approach to issues, thinking outside the box to come up with solutions. The collaborative approach within the business ensures that we have access to a variety of different legal departments offering an end-to-end service. The communication has been a primary factor in my continuing use and recommendation of Liz and HC.

Rachel Duncan, Anna Svensson, Charlotte Keeper, and Jed Temple are working as a team with both extensive and developing skill sets to collectively deliver a valued leasehold acquisition and advisory service to our in-house team of property professionals. Trusted advice and guidance are always available and quick to respond.
