Testimonials
Brian Rogers, Finance Director, Interoute Transport Services Limited
“Bower & Bailey advised the buyout team on the secondary buyout of Interoute Transport Services Limited, formerly part of the Rentokil-Initial Group. Rob Brookes and the Bower & Bailey team balanced a thoroughness for detail with an ability to perceive and communicate the essential elements of the deal, despite the disparate timetable which entailed working over the Easter break, the transaction completed on time and on budget.”
Andrew Rogers, Managing Director of The Bollington Group Limited and former shareholder of TMIS plc
“Rob Brookes and the Bower & Bailey team handled the sale of TMIS plc (which traded as FM Green) to the Bollington Group Limited. They provided the shareholders with a high quality service comparable with what you would expect from larger, national law firms. Rob consistently delivered prompt and pragmatic legal advice throughout the sale process.”
Lewis White, former partner of Hayward White Estate Agents
“When I was approached by a large company about the prospect of selling my business one of the first calls was to Rob Brookes of Bower & Bailey. From that moment through six months of hard negotiating, due diligence and numerous drafts, Rob’s advice remained calm, wise and hugely useful throughout. Dealing with a collection of other lawyers, numerous partners and the buyers (often on the same day) his ability to deal with everything was impressive. He delivered the final business transfer as he said he would and we will always be grateful for the commitment and hours (often out of hours) of work he put in for us. I would strongly recommend any business thinking of selling or buying to contact Rob Brookes”
