I am so pleased that we chose to work with Alex and her colleagues on this project, as they have been an absolute pleasure to deal with and so helpful and patient along the way, making the process much easier than it could have been and getting us to the position we are now in, with a completion!

A special mention to Alex Hall who went above and beyond in her assistance to get our deal over the line. In what ended up being very difficult protracted negotiations, Alex made herself available to us throughout and worked evenings and I am sure some weekends to assist us. She is a very valuable asset to the business, and we cannot speak highly enough of.

Recently both Alex Hall and Hayley Blackburn were fantastic, among other members of the team at Blacks, when we used their services during the sale of our business. Making what was a very stressful process as simple as possible.

I couldn’t recommend Alex Hall enough. Alex gave a very personal service from day one. Nothing was too much trouble for Alex, from giving regular updates on the sale of my business to making sure I fully understood all the legal jargon.
