For any small business looking for the right law firm to guide you through an acquisition I would highly recommend Harper James. My personal experience was with Matt Shakesheff who looked after my sale and passed me over to their team who looked over my new contract of employment as I was staying with my buyer for a 2 year handover. They delivered on budget and on time.

Responsive and expert advice for multiple issues that we've have to deal with from share agreements, IP contracts through to employment contracts.
Ongoing retainer model works as you can accrue hours and use them when you need to.

We recently instructed Harper James to help us with some debt recovery. They were very professional to work with and always quick to respond. The action helped us recover the debt owed to the business so a successful engagement.

The support I have received from the team at Harper James has been outstanding. I would highly recommend their services to other businesses requiring a full service legal firm. Mark Gudgeon in particular has been extremely effective and helpful for debt recovery.

Reply from Harper James
From the initial on boarding call to being placed with suitable solicitor was seamless . Mark Gudgeon was professional & responsive and managed to negotiate a settlement agreement that was suited both parties in the dispute . I would not hesitate to use Mark again and indeed Harper James as a group .

Mark Gudgeon has been our primary solicitor, guiding us through several litigation matters, particularly those related to non-payment, with a perfect 100% success rate. Mark’s responsiveness and deep understanding of our business operations have been instrumental in achieving positive outcomes, making the entire process smooth and efficient.

We've worked with Harper James for approximately five years now, and I can't speak highly enough of the service they provide. Over the years I've worked closely with Mark on debt recovery, and he's been nothing short of fantastic. Mark is always efficient, responsive, and professional, making the whole process feel much less daunting. Even adding a bit of humour into the mix occasionally!
Mark has been quick to offer help, always ready to lend a hand and provide sound advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Harper James. They have made a significant impact on our business, and I look forward to continuing our partnership.

Can't thank these good people enough! They took an extremely difficult situation and simplified it! Expert advice, attention to detail, "i's" dotted and "t's" crossed! Not out of the woods yet, but with this organisation, I know I and my company are in safe hands! Awesome!
