I recently completed the sale of my business. Herrington Carmichael acted on my behalf, and my contact was Joel Gocool. Joel and his team were magnificent.

I recently sold my business. I was advised to use HC as they have experience in selling financial advisory companies. I have been delighted with the work that they did. They were thorough and quick to engage, and from a cost perspective, they met the quote that they had given at the outset. Most importantly, it was imperative that, with a relatively short window to operate in, we got the deal over the line before the new tax year... we completed on the 31st March. I am so pleased with all Joel and Dylan have done and would recommend HC highly.

We recently worked with Joel Gocool and Dylan Cutifani on the successful completion of our Management Buyout (MBO).

At the outset, the scope of work was not entirely clear, but they took the time to explain the legal aspects of the process and provided a clear shopping list of the documents that might be needed, together with quotes for each item.
