Paul Forsyth

I work mostly with Paul Forsyth who is my first call for any of our legal requirements as I know he will find the correct member of the team for me very speedily. Responses to enquiries always fast and professional.

Paul provided us with all the initial professional advice and a presented us with a detailed and precise schedule to complete our requirements. He then expertly led us through the lengthy and complicated legal process with the highest level of expertise, knowledge and attention to detail. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to sell all or part of their business without hesitation.

I have worked with Paul on a number of corporate transaction and commercial agreement reviews. The timely and pragmatic advice Paul provides allows for the process to be as efficient as the other party allows. What I value most is the ability to talk through issues and get simple interpretations of any complex legalities.

Thanks for all the hard work and diligence you and your colleagues have applied to this process, we finally got it over the line.

Many thanks for getting this across the line… you did a great job! Your client care and attention was exemplary! I appreciate that this was a deal that was out of the norm, however, thank you for showing tenacity and patience.

Your support on this has been tremendous and we wouldn’t have got this far without that support – you have set yourself apart from other lawyers that I regularly deal with.

Very competent and professional firm with extremely knowledgeable teams, in particular the corporate and commercial team members Abigail Williamson and Paul Forsyth.

Both Paul Forsyth and Abigail Williamson provided outstanding advice and customer service, we were given detailed explanations and assistance whenever needed which enabled us to make well informed decisions. They are also very easy to talk to and personable. Highly Recommend.

Paul Forsyth, deep knowledge and experience of corporate sale mandates.

Good breadth and depth across different specialisms, with Paul Forsyth having a very good overview of the key transaction parts – which different members of his team are working on. Have found the team to be strong and importantly very willing and able to join and facilitate client discussions – and explain risks and opportunities using jargon free language.

Paul Forsyth and Abigail Williamson are both outstanding. Very clear in their explanations, turned documents around very quickly, even when given at the last minute.

Selling your business you've spent years building is a stressful and scary prospect- you'll probably only do it once and you want it done right. Having a good legal team to guide you through the process is an absolute necessity. We found the commercial team at Ellisons to be personable, professional and very helpful through this unique (to us) period of time. Tight time scales and a wide range of issues, from lease legalities, commercial property sale issues, and sensitive commercial information about your business, there are a lot of hurdles to jump to get to an end goal. We were glad we chose Paul and his team at Ellisons, they worked diligently and professionally to lead us to the best result for us.
