Testimonials

I always found Mel delivered for his clients and I have no reason to doubt that he will continue to do just that with his new client at gunnercooke LLP. I have no hesitation in recommending Mel to businesses in the healthcare or property development sectors.

Santander UK

Banking Director

Mel is a diligent, commercial and an efficient lawyer. He has acted for me on various transactions over some years, including the sale of two dental practices (one of which was the sale of a limited company) and commercial real estate work. I trust his judgement implicitly. He has always worked to deadlines and achieved closing of the complicated company sale on time, despite various issues arising close to the completion date. I would not hesitate to recommend him for both corporate and real estate work.

Dr R Gardner

Mel's excellent legal knowledge and approachability culminated in my very complicated dental purchase being completed with minimal issues

He deals with high value acquisitions and disposals and is one of only a very select few dedicated healthcare lawyers advising white coat professionals for the last 12 years. He also acts on behalf of property developers, dealing with site acquisitions and disposals.
