A collection of multi-million-pound deals at home and abroad has seen Trethowans recognised through a trio of awards. The law firm was praised last week after its work on the management buyout of CT Automotive Group in Hong Kong and the MBO of Stewart Signs in Hampshire which scooped three Solent Deals Awards.
Both deals were led by Lucy Grey, corporate partner, and Sophie Eales, banking partner.
The awards success comes as the law firm, which has offices in Poole, Salisbury, Southampton, Winchester and a base in London, has presided over a record-breaking number of deals in the past year. It also follows the firm’s unveiling of its ambitious new growth strategy, through which it hopes to become a £20m firm by 2020.
Lucy Grey, partner and corporate lawyer at Trethowans, said: “We’ve seen a record number of deals complete over the last 12 months, working alongside some fantastic local businesses. The success of the transactions is down to having a team of the region’s best advisers working together. The awards recognise the quality of the work the corporate team is undertaking and reflects our hard work and dedication.”
Head of commercial services and Southampton office Mike Watson added: “We are absolutely thrilled that our work on these important deals has been recognised by our peers. It’s further proof of our excellent service, which is playing an integral part in our latest growth strategy.”
This year’s Solent Deals Awards attracted more than 520 nominations for the 12 award categories, and a 250-guest ‘black-tie’ gala dinner attendance. Brain Tumour Research, the event’s chosen charity, was boosted by donations totalling £1,502.50 and a table collection also gathered £1,669 from generous corporate finance community representatives attending to help London’s Grenfell Tower fire tragedy survivors.
