Yavan’s approach in dealing with negotiations and in dealing with the city lawyers on a multi-million pound investment were commercially focused, ensured that progress was made and that we concentrated on the areas of the greatest importance. It greatly assisted in ensuring that a potentially complex closing was dealt with effectively and with a successful result. Always approachable and responsive, Yavan and his team are professional and a pleasure to deal with. When the deal was complete, our new partners also remarked on the extremely pragmatic and professional input from Yavan and his team.

Working with the Banking team at HC in helping us to secure a critically important and complex debt financing deal for the company was real pleasure. It was understood very clearly from the start that a tight timeline was required to close out all the necessary legal documentation, which they turned around in very short timescales.

Chris Gemson and Yavan Brar were great at managing this, with clear explanations and a great ability to advise and negotiate. They took a very commercial approach when needed on some of the areas that came up throughout the process, right the way through to completion.
We look forward to an ongoing working partnership in the future as the company continues to navigate its way through a key fund raising period.

Chris and his team were a pleasure to work with as part of a CBILS loan application we made in Q1 2021 via our new bank, Silicon Valley Bank. Chris was incredibly pro-active and responsive throughout the entire process. He understood very clearly, from the outset, the importance of securing the loan for the business given the relatively early stage nature of the company. He and his team drove this forward, facilitating the required dialogue with SVB’s legal counsel to get the deal over the line. I would not hesitate to use Chris and his teams legal services in the future.

Yavan and his team at Herrington Carmichael recently advised us on the assignment of two loans and associated security from third party lenders onto our books. Yavan and Matt provided advice of the highest quality and ensured the transactions completed swiftly. They were available whenever we needed to contact them and kept their advice commercially focused to our specific requirements. We have built a good relationship up with the whole team at Herrington Carmichael and would certainly recommend them.

We instructed the banking team at Herrington Carmichael on a complex and difficult banking transaction within a tight turnaround. Yavan and Chris met the challenge and they helped us to understand the key sticking and contentions points with great clarity, and simplified the process for us. Chris and Yavan had a consistent focus on our end goal throughout, and worked hard to help us achieve it. It has been a real pleasure working with them, and I would not hesitate to recommend them!

– Danny Pecorelli, Managing Director

A sincere thank you to Yavan and the entire Herrington Carmichael team.  You are an exceptionally committed group of individuals.

Looking back, it’s impressive what we managed to accomplish over such a short period of time, dealing with a variety of issues that came up during the process.

The amount of back and forth, especially over the last few days, has been dizzying and I can only imagine what was going on behind the scenes.

Working with Yavan, Chris and Matt was a pleasure.  Thanks to the three of you as well as the many others working behind the scenes
