Notable Cases

Martin works with several businesses that are actively engaged with regulatory authorities. One such client he supported during a period of near insolvency, and has continued to support it during recovery, and back into growth.

He has helped a number of social housing clients to ensure a full suite of company secretarial and governance documents are in place to demonstrate legal and regulatory compliance, and has worked with clients to mentor and develop their internal governance resources.

Martin worked with a social housing business to transfer a community asset and its staff to a local enterprise business. This involved project managing a due diligence exercise and arranging for the appropriate transfer agreements to be put in place.
