“We have just completed the sale of our two care homes and would like to thank the team at Stephens Scown for their knowledge, understanding and support during the complex 18 month process. Jade Kent led the project brilliantly with Jen Short-Martin, Helen Wallwork, Laura McFadyen and Toby Pool providing a level of support that was fundamental to achieving a positive outcome. After appointing Stephens Scown as our legal representatives, it soon became very clear that we had made the right choice, the level of expertise gave us reassurance, and the team were unwavering with their support. During the process we reached out to the wider resources at Stephens Scown and were guided on employment, commercial property, IP, regulatory and the healthcare sector. The communication hit the right tone at every point and the team were always approachable, responsive and efficient. We would absolutely recommend Stephens Scown and would use their services again in the future.”

Legal 500 (2021) – Practice head Helen Wallwork has a track record advising on commercial and corporate law.
Legal 500 (2020) – “Helen has been very responsive when we had an issue which needed a timely response. Helen clearly understands the sector we are involved in and the rules and regulations which apply. The advice was clear, understandable and timely. Clear heads were kept where we were under pressure due to circumstances, which was extremely helpful.”
“We would like to thank you for the quite exceptional level of service and professionalism that we received from your law firm: led by Helen. Helen gained our trust from ‘get-go’ and whatever wrinkle appeared during the massively intense due diligence, we soon learned to respect her unerring judgement. This successful sale has delivered a profound and transformational change to our lives and we could not have been in better hand than Helen Wallwork of Stephens Scown and Alison Watts of Thomas Westcott.”
