My situation involved the disposal of a minority shareholding in a small business. On the face of it there didn’t seem much I could do but following my introduction to Francis Wilks & Jones and more particularly Maria Koureas-Jones and with the help of her colleagues they patiently worked away to counter the other sides arguments and eventually achieved a very satisfactory result for me. I can highly recommend all at Francis Wilks & Jones.

Francis Wilks & Jones were responsive, available at all times to deal with any of my queries and very reassuring. I would definitely recommend them to deal with proceedings brought on behalf of shareholders – they understood our practical needs.

The team at FWJ were excellent. Even when I was on the back foot they provided reassurance and always looked at all the issues with diligence and explored all the angles. They made you feel as if you were their only client (not always the case with many legal firms). I would thoroughly recommend Francis Wilks & Jones.
