Advising clients through transformational transactions is always rewarding, so we were delighted to support Frenkel Topping Group plc on its recommended £64 million takeover by Irwell Financial Services Bidco Limited, a company indirectly owned by a limited partnership managed by Harwood Private Equity LLP. The transaction was implemented by way of a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement, required FCA approval and involved a complex consideration structure.
As a leading specialist financial and professional services firm serving the personal injury and clinical negligence market, Frenkel Topping has built a strong reputation in its sector. The transaction marks a significant milestone in the company's journey.
Richard Fraser, CEO of Frenkel Topping Group plc, said:
“Tessa and the team guided and helped us through all the different stages of this complicated and lengthy process with great professionalism and expertise. They were a pleasure to work with.”
Partner Tessa Trevelyan Thomas added:
“We were delighted to apply our expertise in public takeovers to this lengthy, and at times complicated, transaction and to work alongside Cavendish (our client’s financial adviser) to provide joined-up advice at this key period of transition for Frenkel Topping.”
Our team was led by Tessa Trevelyan Thomas and included Tyler Hilborne, Mike Lanning, Lucy Crawley and Ollie Clark.
