He was always responsive, technically knowledgeable, and highly commercial - his ability to provide a view on the best route forward when we were faced with complex or commercially sensitive situations proved extremely helpful. We knew JMW were experienced with mid-market M&A deals and this, alongside their experience working with owner-managed businesses, meant we had no hesitation in appointing the firm and have no hesitation in recommending them."
