Absolutely brilliant Solicitors would highly recommend
Rebecca was highly recommended to assist us with the sale of our company. From our initial telephone conversation to completion and beyond we could not have asked more. Clear, concise communications, super dedication to the job and a pleasure to deal with. It’s a stressful time but Rebecca and her team worked tirelessly to ensure everything was dealt with calmly and with absolute efficiency with communication we could understand. We cannot recommend Rebecca and Stephanie enough. Excellent legal advice and the fees charged we thought we worth every penny.

Looking forward to selling another company with Tozers!
This was a new experience and, honestly one that's not my strong suit. Rebecca Roberts was absolutely brilliant from start to finish, and made the challenges of selling my company, very seamless and straightforward (even though it wasn't!) Her communication was excellent and she went above and beyond to get it across the finish line in the world's shortest timeframe. I look forward to selling a future company with her!

Dedicated and Efficient Team
James Orpin has handled our commercial contracts for many years and was the natural choice as our lead lawyer when we came to selling the business. We love James' clear communication and efficient turn around, coupled with his commercial experience to find solutions. We had never worked with the wider Tozers team before, but were very impressed by the strength and depth in their team, all with a common dedication and tenacity to getting things completed to a deadline. Many thanks to James and the Tozers Team
