The Law Firm Mergers and Acquisitions market is on a positive upward trend. There are many reasons and vast opportunities in selling your law firm and we can help you crystallise these.

These reasons might be:

  • You are considering retirement, and so succession planning is or will be a top priority. 
  • The administrative burdens of running your own firm are increasing.

  • You want to do what you are an expert in, fee earning.
  • Reduce competition and increase your competitive advantage in the process.

Testimonial from Philip Shaw

"Trish proved tenacious and proactive in helping to drive the deal to a successful conclusion and readily understood the nuances of dealing with not only lawyers, but LLP’s. Her knowledge and approach meant that items that may have resulted in disagreement or argument with the acquirers team were dissipated or simply avoided. Finally, the fees involved were in my view both entirely justified and reasonable which is not a comment that often springs to mind in such situations!"

Testimonial from Anonymous

"Having worked with Trish Kinahan for many years I had no hesitation in engaging her to advise and assist us on the sale of our law firm. Their wide knowledge of the sector helped us to structure the deal and the decision was made to proceed with a share sale. They were there to assist us at all times throughout the process and provided effective and efficient support. We received an excellent service and would certainly recommend them to anyone involved in a corporate transaction. "
