Testimonials
"Mark Hughes – an absolute pleasure to work with, really down to earth with an ability to explain / debate legal positions in a clear manner. Unlike many advisors he does not simply flag risks as a means to upsell other services – appreciates that the client often needs to be in a position to take commercial decisions based on probability and potential financial impact."
