"I would like to express our gratitude at the assistance Adam Aston provided throughout; his diligent, thorough efforts no doubt greatly assisted us in reaching a satisfactory outcome.
I was always particularly pleased at the quality of the legal documentation that he produced on our behalf and was most certainly a great reflection on Muckle as an organisation. His advice was always considered and his aim throughout was to ensure we got the contract we wanted, following on from our brief. I am aware that our consultants also speak highly of both Adam and Muckle."
