We have relevant and recent experience of working with diverse groups of shareholders and stakeholders who may have a differing appetite for risk and understanding of a corporate sale process. Our pragmatic, down to earth approach means that issues are addressed head on and resolved quickly. We are approachable, easy to talk to and will be committed to protecting your position and getting a good result for you in your key transaction documents while not being ‘over lawyerly’. 

Our services are always Partner led and our hourly rates mean that you’ll deal with the people you have the relationship with and those same people will be the ones that do the majority of the work. Our clients receive a hands-on level of engagement, where we’ll head up all deal negotiations and ensure you are kept up-to-date regularly and that a collaborative approach is taken through the transaction process and with a focus on excellent service. 

The team has a considerable experience in mergers and acquisitions. Our team comprises of city firm lawyers with a wealth of experience and can deal with any sort of buyer and buyer’s lawyers on the other side be it private equity or trade sale, UK, US or other overseas buyer. This gives us depth of knowledge when dealing with deals in this space which translates into quick, intuitive and effective advice for you.

We want to win work on the ability to service our clients to the best possible levels and demonstrate ourselves with the pragmatic and commercial advice. We recognise however that sometimes cost is a factor. Our innovative approach to giving clients value for money and being competitive in our pricing has kept us ahead our competitors at city and national firms. Great value is a phrase CG’s clients frequently use about our services, but we never seek to low-ball or buy work and our philosophy is one of openness and flexibility.
