Melissa, I just wanted to add my thanks to you both for your professionalism and support throughout the process. You helped us stay calm through extremely stressful situations and we are very grateful for that
Alex and Melissa provided a very professional service whilst also ensuring we negotiated some key inclusions and protection into our business sale agreement. Alex was a real ally ensuring that we negotiated the best possible outcomes and found solutions to areas where one didn’t seem to be present. His work alongside Melissa ensured a cohesive delivery of our complex sale – thank you both.”
Melissa has been a pleasure to work with over the last few months, her ability to pick up complex commercial legal matters, together with her attention to detail has been very impressive. We would highly recommend Melissa for any commercial legal matters.
Herrington Carmichael were recommended to myself and my fellow directors to act in the selling of our financial services company. Throughout the process I found Alex Canham and Melissa Deutrom to be knowledgeable about our particular industry, they acted in our interests in a diligent but pragmatic way, gave sound advice, were responsive to our requests and focussed on achieving the deadline that we required. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others in a similar situation.
It was delightful working with Melissa. She made me feel comfortable when dealing with what was a complicated process. Melissa was professional, knowledgeable and dedicated.
A big thank you to Alex and his team in particular Kate and Melissa who worked diligently and at all times looked to serve our best interests. They were constantly available to provide reassuring advice through a sometimes difficult transaction and fraught period. Despite the tight deadlines and significant workload I was delighted with their performance.
