What do others say

A client said: "He knows his stuff, is very responsive and meets tight deadlines. He is very good technically but will talk to you on a layman's level – he demystifies things."

Supporting your ambitions

David regularly advises international lenders and corporates structure complex cross-border finance transactions. David advised an international sugar producer on the refinancing of its Italian sugar refinery. This involved co-ordinating parties in London, Paris, Luxembourg, Rome and New York.

What our clients say about us

“I think Mills & Reeve are a wonderful firm. The support they have provided to us in a really difficult area has been brilliant, collaborative and commercially minded. The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.”

“They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.”

“All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.”

“I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.”
