Greenwoods in Peterborough continues to build its corporate and commercial team, which is led by the highly experienced Stephen Jarvis. His 'ultra-professional, efficient and effective' team includes senior associates Claire Banks (who is 'very positive and clear') and head of the charity sector group Victoria Robinson. Acting as a central hub for the firm-wide practice, the Peterborough office is increasingly involved in multimillion-pound national and cross-border transactions, a recent example being its work for family-owned company Hedin Mobility Group in  its acquisition of BMW and Mini retailer Stephen James Group. Charities and education are two of the firm's key areas of expertise.

  • ‘Claire Banks is a very positive and clear communicator and assists me in understanding the various elements at a level me and my team can understand. Legal elements are complex and at times very difficult to understand, but her ability to explain and advise, assists us in making decisions and progressing through acquisition's we have made and share holder agreement documentation.’

  • ‘The team are hugely knowledgeable and always happy to help with any queries. When covering a range of topics they will always find the right additional support to provide appropriate expert advice. On one occasion they even picked up on a problem created by a different legal company and helped explain the issue clearly and easily before it became a significant problem to the business. I always know if I have any legal queries I can call on them and I will get a swift and reliable response. What more could I ask for.’
