I have primarily worked alongside Jenny Burke on a number of commercial law matters with my clients, all of whom have found Jenny’s support and knowledge exceptional. I always know that I can recommend Jenny in complete confidence, knowing that the service she and her colleagues will provide to my clients will be of the highest standard.

Having worked with several local law firms I have always found Forbes offer the best service as they always put the client first. The partners and staff I have worked with are excellent. I have received positive feedback when recommending Jenny Burke and Victoria Motley. Their service is professional, attitude is always positive, and they always have time to listen to clients to ensure they are meeting all their needs.

David and his team guided us through the Management Buy Out of our Company and we cannot recommend him highly enough. After 38 years of running the business, it was a daunting and emotional task for us but he truly was a pleasure to deal with. He kept us up to speed at every stage of the process, guiding us through the paperwork and answering all our queries in a friendly and patient manner. Highly recommended and we would have no hesitation in using him again.

Forbes have recently acted on my behalf on the sale of my company, Gemma Catlow has overseen all of our transaction and I could not recommend a more professional diligent person who has personally given a first class attention for the smooth completion of the deal. Gemma has taken the time to explain issues to a client may appear daunting at time to guide us through the transfer of each stage.

I could not be more pleased with the way Rebecca McCann has handled this assignment - explained everything fully with a very professional, friendly and polite approach. Kept me fully informed and ensured a smooth completion of the work.

I would highly recommend Rebecca and Forbes.

Jenny Burke is an excellent corporate solicitor who I have worked with for a number of years. Jenny always takes the time to ensure all parties fully understand the work being carried out, and is happy to answer all questions from all parties.

We hired Forbes to advise us on a complex merger with a UK firm that also involved Private Equity. David and his teams demeanor and care for the details was second to none. I have worked with over 15 law firms in the last 20 years and they rate as one of the best I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

He kept all 20 shareholders aligned and kept us in the loop at all times. His understanding of the human factor and emotions involved in selling your baby came through over and over. At times I think he was as much of a Solicitor as he was a Therapist. His willingness to work around a 6 hour time zone difference was truly a blessing. He was happy to have calls with us well past his bed time. If you need a Solicitor in the UK you will not be disappointed in picking Forbes and David Filmer.

I had an excellent experience with Gemma. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and she guided me step by step throughout the entire process. She was always very efficient with time and kept everything on track. I felt fully supported and informed from start to finish.

From start to finish, Fern was excellent in all facets of the job. She was in contact constantly, advised me on my situation and how to improve my case, and was just an all round pleasure to work with.

Rebecca managed my interests in a share sale / restructuring transaction to facilitate my partial exit from a limited company. This was a fairly complex transaction involving setting up a new holding company, the transfer of shares, the sale of shares and new service agreements for the directors. To be honest I wasn't looking forward to working through the legal process to make this transaction happen but Rebecca (and the team at Forbes) made it seem easy. I can honestly say it was a pleasure to work with them and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Rebecca and Pauline were a pleasure to deal with. It’s always a frustrating period selling a business that you have worked in for many years and mine was no exception. Through great communication it helped elevate the stresses of the process and Rebecca’s constant reassurance was very much welcomes.

David and his team expertly navigated us through a complex business acquisition. The service provided by David and all of the team at Forbes was outstanding. David's advice and approach is precise, timely and practical; all of which was instrumental in getting a complicated transaction over the line - despite multiple challenges and changes along the way! We highly recommend David to others looking for pragmatic advice of the highest quality.

We used Forbes in the recent sale of our business and from start to finish they were great. We dealt with David and Nick, and even with holidays, cover was in place to ensure completion was within the deadline. They were at hand via email, phone and zoom through out the process and wouldn't hesitate recommending them to anyone.

M&A and financing advice on a complex acquisition process

David and his team advised us as buy-in investors to acquire two companies in the packaging sector. It was a complex deal involving two connected but separate acquisitions and financing from six separate lenders. He and his team were excellent.
