“I would thoroughly recommend this practice. I have dealt with Claire Miller on the rental of two properties now and have nothing but praise for her and her firm. Exceptionally professional and efficient as well as value for money.“
“As a long-standing client of Penman Sedgwick, I am pleased to recently conclude another commercial property lease on schedule and to the satisfaction of both myself and the new tenant who was under time pressure to occupy. Claire Miller has once again provided an excellent diligent service and the response rate to solicitor replies is second to none. Always a pleasure to work with and I have no hesitation in highly recommending.“
“Claire Miller assisted with a complex contract for premises sale including land transfers, compensation for loss of business use and escrow account management. We as owners were advised on all aspects at every stage. No deadlines were missed, and all stages were concluded satisfactorily. Jacqueline Alderton assisted with the contracts for the sale of three businesses which included two management buyouts. Advice was given on all aspects of the business closures and redundancies. A comprehensive service was provided to the directors on their legal duties and responsibilities through to closure. Having been clients for decades we can thoroughly recommend Penman Sedgwick’s services for all business and property related matters.“
