ROBERT POSTLETHWAITE, MANAGING DIRECTOR
Our company Garner Tackle formed an EOT back in 2019. We were guided through the whole process by Robert and the team at Postlethwaite's. From beginning to end the process was so easy, the team explained everything to us in a way we could understand. Over the last 4 years the changes to our business have only been positive, our staff are happier, more motivated and care deeply about the company and it's success. The move to become majority employee owned has been a complete success and we're so happy we used Postlethwaite's to advise and manage the process. Thank you 🙂
We have worked closely with Postlethwaite Solicitors for many years and more recently on several EOT transactions. They are always responsive and timely in dealing with both us and our clients, and their advice is always clear, particularly when discussing some of the more technical tax issues. David Reuben is a pleasure to work with. He always goes above and beyond, and overall we consider the team at Postlethwaite Solicitors to be experts in the Employee Ownership field.
David and Toby expertly guided us through an at times technical process with great knowledge, skill, pragmatism, patience and good humour. They hit all deadlines and communicated very well, clearly and quickly throughout. They are the go to experts in the EOT field. Extremely impressive and reasonably priced - highly recommended. Support staff good too. Many thanks to all at Postlethwaites.
We found Robert and the team to be very straight-forward, approachable and flexible in their dealings with our transition to Employee Ownership. It was a please to do business with them.
Professional. Courteous. Well informed esp. on EO. The ability to ask tough questions with empathy. Always reply in a timely fashion. Safe hands.
An excellent outcome and outstaying service from the team at Postlethwaite. Their advice at every stage was clear and they were first class in terms of demystifying what looked at the outset a rather daunting process.
We used them for an EMI scheme. Excellent to deal with, always very responsive, super knowledgeable and a quick turnaround. Highly recommend.
The team at Postlethwaite enabled Nikwax and Páramo to preserve our unique purpose-led values whilst building a sustainable future as we transition from being founder owned to an exciting employee-owned collective. Nothing was too much trouble; complexities and challenges were solved with an efficient, collaborative and ultimately bespoke approach that worked for us. Thank you for helping us to secure a special and exciting future as Partners in our business!
