Jacqueline has handled a number of issues for me this year, related to the sale of my business. Jacqueline is incredibly commercial and put the business interests at the centre of everything. She made the process about me and my business, not complicated legal scenarios. She gave me practical advice, enabling me to achieve my goals. I always felt that I understood the process, never feeling overwhelmed with legal jargon or unnecessary workload. She was also honest if she felt I was overreaching or unlikely to achieve something, to avoid me incurring unnecessary costs. Crucially, I trusted her to achieve the best outcome for me, and I knew I could rely on her to negotiate effectively on my behalf.” ”
