Jon Healey sees the wider picture of what needs to be achieved.
“The Raworths team are extremely well connected to each other across disciplines. We frequently retain them on M&A work which inevitably involves commercial, HR law and property matters and they never fail to work seamlessly. Their speed of response is also truly exceptional compared to others we have used in the past.”
