Client Success Stories

The Real Estate team at Herrington Carmichael were excellent in dealing with this transaction, they delivered their expertise in a pragmatic and commercial way maintaining a professional and responsive approach throughout. They provided clear, commercially informed guidance, and took a highly structured approach to coordinating the requirements of our lender, the transaction as a whole and our development strategy. I'd like to thank Liz and the team for all their support in helping the Chartwell Group successfully complete the transaction. We really appreciated their guidance and look forward to working with them again in the future

It was a pleasure working with Liz and Hannah on this transaction, securing crucial funding for an iconic hotel in South Devon. The communication and commercial guidance from Liz, Hannah and the wider Herrington Carmichael team was first rate throughout. I would not hesitate in recommending them for future transactions and look forward to working with the team again soon.

I have worked with Joel and his team on two acquisitions, on both occasions he has been professional, knowledgeable and approachable. He is able to explain the process in layman’s terms, clearly differentiating between the preferred and essential in contract negotiations.  I wouldn’t hesitate to use or recommend Joels services again

Joel and his team are an absolute pleasure to work with. From day one to completion, they were totally engaged in the sale process to ensure the best possible outcome for us as individuals. Their wise counsel throughout the process was invaluable and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Joel, and the team at HC provided exceptional support throughout what was a complex and high value transaction. Their calm, pragmatic approach and commercial understanding gave me confidence at every stage of the process. Joel’s communication was clear andconsistent, and he was always there to support me and reassure me at all hours and he always made sure my priorities were fully protected while maintaining momentum to completion. I would have no hesitation in recommending Joel and HC to anyone seeking experienced, commercially minded legal support for an investment process or business sale
Marc Rigby, Managing Director

Mark, Edie, and the team were excellent throughout our software company demerger. At the outset, the scope of work was not entirely clear, but they took the time to explain the legal aspects of the process and provided a clear ‘shopping list’ of the documents that might be needed, together with quotes for each item. This helped us understand the importance and cost of each piece of work and decide what to prioritise and in what order. They then supported us with key documentation, including a new EULA for one of the newly created company’s products and novation agreements to transfer customers and suppliers to the new entities. Their advice was clear, practical, and commercially focused throughout, and they handled the whole process with professionalism and efficiency. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
I cannot thank Joel, Dylan and the wider Herrington Carmichael team enough for their outstanding support throughout the sale of my shares. What should have been a straightforward transaction became far more complex and protracted than anyone anticipated, with numerous delays and challenges along the way. Throughout the process, Joel and Dylan remained calm, professional, responsive and completely committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. They provided clear, practical advice, kept me informed at every stage and worked tirelessly to keep the transaction moving forward despite repeated obstacles. Their attention to detail, persistence and ability to navigate difficult negotiations gave me complete confidence that my interests were being protected at all times. Beyond their legal expertise, what stood out most was their genuine support. This was a stressful and emotionally draining transaction, and there were times when I felt like giving up. Joel and Dylan were always there to provide reassurance, explain the next steps and ensure I never felt that I was facing the process alone. I am incredibly grateful for their professionalism, dedication and perseverance in bringing the transaction to a successful conclusion. I would have no hesitation in recommending Joel, Dylan and Herrington Carmichael to anyone looking for solicitors who combine exceptional legal expertise with outstanding client care

Mark quickly got to grips with our complex and extensive business division. What impressed me most was Mark’s innovative and commercial solutions and his ability to see the bigger picture.
