The skillset across the various team members was very impressive, hence they were able to advise us across all areas of the transaction, including tax, employment, properties, contracts and most importantly the Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).
"It was a complicated deal, but TLT were always able to explain to us the legalities in a clear manner such that we were able to take full advantage of their advice and make decisions which we were confident would be correct. I would be happy to recommend them to any business owner to help them navigate the sale of their business.”
