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
