“Thank you for all your help in assisting John to buy his first business. Despite a short timeline you managed to not only deal with the technical side of sorting out the purchase agreement and the property lease but also the excellence of your ‘bedside manner’ gave John the care, advice and help that a novice entrepreneur needed” Jonathan Vowles, JVCA
