Edward Beedham

Having been recommended Herrington Carmichael to aid us with the sale of our business the Regency Cafe, I was immediately impressed with their clear, calm and thorough attitude guiding us through all the different aspects of the sale, whether it be in corporate, lease matters, employment or dispute resolution. I most notably dealt with Anna Svensson in Real Estate and Edward Beedham in Corporate, and despite the matter taking much longer than anticipated, proving somewhat frustrating at times, they remained professional, communicative and clear-headed, giving sound advice and working in a timely and responsive manner, ultimately reaching a satisfactory conclusion with the sale of my business. I have had no cause for complaint with their service whatsoever and are immensely grateful for all their help. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

I found Alex and Edward to be responsive, on point, quick to answer queries, professional, efficient and the ability to explain complex issues in layman’s terms. An excellent service and one I would recommend to all.

I have worked with Ed on several occasions in relation to the sale of business interests, and once again he and his team have delivered an excellent service. They are highly efficient in preparing and turning around key documentation, enabling me to meet important deadlines and achieve my overall objectives. Ed’s expertise is invaluable, he has consistently identified risks that would not have been apparent to me and has ensured appropriate risk mitigating provisions were put in place. I would not hesitate to recommend Ed and his team at Herrington Carmichael.

I found Edward and the team at HC to be highly knowledgeable and professional in navigating the sale of our business. The terms of the contracts were explained concisely, highlighting areas of potential issue, whilst advising on points which would be normally included in a deal of this nature. This enabled a smooth transaction.

Alex, Ed and the team at Herrington Carmichael provided us with excellent advice and support for our company sale, with their knowledge and experience making the process very efficient.

As an Insolvency Practitioner, Ed has dealt with a number of business disposals on my behalf and the quality of his work never slips. Ed manages to combine the legal and practical aspects of a disposal with consummate ease and it certainly makes my life a lot easier knowing that he is dealing with the legals on my behalf!

I would like to thank Herrington Carmichael for their professional service, namely Edward from the commercial and Daniel from property divisions. Being new in the U.K. and not understanding the processes, they both took time to explain the process and detailed reasons for the clauses put into the contracts. Well done, 5-star treatment. Will definitely use you again.

Navigating the legal and financial minefield that’s attached to a part residential, part commercial purchase, combined with the sale of our house and my parents' house, was certainly challenging. Edward, Daniel and all of the Commercial and Residential teams did a fantastic job of advising us and steering us through this minefield. They understood exactly what the situation was and how to handle it. We put them under deadline pressure, and their response was not only professional, friendly and courteous, but they responded fantastically, often going beyond what we would have reasonably expected. Their communication was great, and they did what they said they would do. Since then, I have also worked with Herrington Carmichael on other business matters and will be doing so again in the near future.

We found Alex, Ed and the commercial team at Herrington Carmichael to be very knowledgeable, helpful and attentive from start to finish when we were selling our IFA business. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

It was our first company acquisition and we knew we needed first class legal support; we certainly struck gold when with Alex and his team at Herrington Carmichael. Edward in particular was fantastic and guided us through the whole process with pragmatism and a level of calmness that was professional and reassuring. The experience was outstanding.

I was very pleased to be introduced by my accountants to Alex and Ed. They demonstrated from the beginning an in-depth knowledge of the market place dynamics, let alone the subject matter which clearly showed their mastery in this area. When it came time for the asset purchase agreement and negotiations which for me was the first time, Ed provided a comprehensive and professional approach which I found very supportive. All matters proceeded to a successful conclusion.

I would like to thank Ed Beedham for the support and advice he provided during the sale of my business. Whilst I have been running a successful business for some 14 years, my knowledge didn’t extend to the legal side and the elements involved in the sale. Ed’s guidance was very straightforward and presented to me in layman’s terms so that I understood all the aspects of the legal requirements and my obligations relating to the sale. In addition to this, there were elements that hadn’t even crossed my mind that Ed then expanded upon which were of great help. To sum up, if I was to go through a business sale in the future, I would not hesitate in instructing Ed to act on my behalf. In addition to this, I would happily recommend Ed as someone who would be a great partner to work with.

I found Ed to be very efficient when it came to completing and concluding my asset purchase agreement. Everything flowed as one would like it to and the whole process from start to finish was a smooth one and dare I say it, a very pleasurable experience.

Alex Canham, Ed Beedham and the team did a tremendous job steering us through the sale of Chadney Bulgin. With so many CB Partners involved, their comprehensive presentation of the contracts, together with excellent communication throughout (vital in this type of deal), enabled both a fast & efficient sale process. Much appreciated.

I found Alex and Edward to be responsive, on point, quick to answer queries, professional, efficient and the ability to explain complex issues in layman’s terms. An excellent service and one I would recommend to all.

Alex and Ed were throughout very professional as you would expect, but also always available to settle our concerns and talk us through the procedures. Something that they clearly had plenty of experience at, which showed through and gave us confidence. They took control of the situation, kept us informed and moved swiftly to conclude the business sale, for which we were very grateful.

Alex, Ed and the team at Herrington Carmichael provided us with excellent advice and support for our company sale, with their knowledge and experience making the process very efficient.
