We found the team at Philip Lee, led by Eoghan Doyle to be exceptional. We were skilfully guided through all technical legal points and key commercial issues to allow us to make the best decisions for the business. The team at Philip Lee worked tirelessly on the transaction, with an impressive focus on quality of work and client care.
