The long road to selling up

As a small business owner, with 20 years under my belt and a great deal of self-sacrifice to ensure a successful company, it's a big step to selling your business. After taking advice from my agent I selected True Legal to act on my behalf and they were both extremely professional and friendly at the same time! There is a huge amount of legal 'speak' involved and my solicitor was was extraordinarily helpful in explaining and how to do things and cutting through all the jargon to simplify matters.

Professional and approachable

Martin was very professional, approachable and calm and helped smooth my journey through my small business sale. He had a very practical and balanced attitude guiding me through all the legal jargon in a way that made it understandable. His communications were good and he responded quickly to any queries I had. A fixed price quoted at the beginning was also helpful. I would not hesitate o recommend him and Truelegal.

Outstanding!

An obvious statement but selling a business isn't an easy process. However, if it's not something you've done before it would be easy to think it's straightforward. It's not. When we first approached Martin he took the time to listen to our story and then asked probing but essential questions that soon helped us see the reality of what was before us. Martin guided us through every step, he was there for us when the process got challenging and most importantly his legal advice was top notch. Martin is more than a solicitor; he's a solicitor who has the human touch and who understands the emotions the seller goes through and then stands by your side. Selling our business had its challenges but Martin was always on the end of the phone to guide us. He worked tirelessly with the buyers solicitors to get the result we needed. We couldn't have done it without Martin. A top guy who looks after you.

Excellent service

Martin Truman provided the solutions I needed quickly, and efficiently. I was able to reach him on the phone or by email without delays, the work was done swiftly without legal complication, and I felt confidence in his work. Given that all of this was carried out at a very reasonable price, I cannot fault his service in any way, and would recommend him to others.

He talks plain English and is easy to get along with.

Martin helped guide me and my colleagues through the sales process, putting our interests first and balancing his time and efforts with ours and the commercial arrangements of the deal. He talks plain English and is easy to get along with. I would have no hesitation in recommending Martin and Truelegal to any other business owners based on my personal experiences.

Thank you Martin!

I totally trust Martin and have the utmost respect for his knowledge and skills as a solicitor in the area of buying and selling businesses. He worked closely with me, on a fixed fee basis, to help sell my document scanning business to a multi-billion dollar US company entering the UK market. I absolutely loved working through the process and having Martin as an advisor was extremely valuable and an absolute pleasure. When you travel a few hundred miles to some swish firms offices on the 20 something floor and are presented with tables full of documents and a team of lawyers on their side, it just helps to have your grounding-rod (Martin) with you making sure you’re topped with Costa and positivity – thank you Martin!”

Thank you for helping with the sale of my cafe.

Thank you for helping with the sale of my cafe . As a new business owner you have been vital to help guide me through the process, and above all being very quick to action all requests. True Legal were so professional from the very first enquiry through to completion. I will be recommending your services to a business friend in the New Year.

Martin and his team supported us through the sale of our soft play business in Northamptonshire recently. Their advice & guidance through the whole process was thorough and professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services or using them again in the future. A "True" pleasure to deal with.

I cannot express enough how pleased we were with the service provided by True Legal. Extremely thorough, comprehensive and professional in all the work they conducted for us. Worked as quickly as possible and were very patient when there were severe delays on the other end. True Legal charge a fixed cost and it is every bit worth the money.

Truelegal was recommended to us by a broker after our solicitor left us in the lurch mid way through a deal. Martin stepped in, picked up the reigns and eventually completed the sale of our London based business. He was a pleasure to deal with, kept us informed of how things were progressing and was decent enough to keep to the fee we agreed at the outset - even though there was a lot more work involved than originally expected and we are very grateful for that.

We would highly recommend Truelegal because they are knowledgeable in their field and it was easy to meet with Martin because although Exeter based he is often in London. Thank you, Martin.
