Client Testimonials

“It was good to feel that the team at FS legal were always on our side, and to know that their concerns were purely about us as the sellers. The combined experience of Gareth, Iain, and Paul helped us to market our firm accurately, narrow down the field to a short list of suitable buyers, and complete on a sale that suited us. They were always there, when needed, providing valuable guidance and advice throughout every stage of the sale process”

"I would like to thank both Paul and Iain for all their help to restructure my business so I could step back and allow the next generation to drive it forward. I wanted my IFA business to pass down to two very capable employees, so their advice was key to be able to do it. From HMRC and FCA approval they handled everything. I would recommend FS Legal to anyone wanting to know that they are in good hands!"

"I have used the services of FS Legal for many years on a range of issues which required specific legal counsel. They have helped guide us through the process of direct authorisation, share restructure and a business sale all within the rules imposed by the FCA. The knowledge and experience of the team coupled with their extensive list of contacts within Financial Services allowed us to navigate through these requirements with confidence. Gareth Fatchett, Iain Johnstone and Paul Crutchley were all instrumental in creating the outcomes we needed to move our business forward. For anyone involved in Financial Services it is imperative to use a legal team who understands the nuances of operating within the UK regulatory environment."
