“Jane has been my lawyer/adviser in both a professional and personal capacity. Her comprehensive advice has covered company set-up, shareholder agreements, employment contracts, software and service contracts, partnership agreements and intellectual property. On at least one occasion her advice saved one of my companies from possible bankruptcy. Jane is a straight-talking lawyer. She always puts her advice into the business context and she is pragmatic – she doesn't just raise a long list of risks. And of course she is local. I have worked with a lot of City lawyers and I recommend Jane most highly.”
