The time was right for the move however, and I am looking forward to working with my new colleagues and friends at Hobsons. I have been aware of their excellent reputation in the city for many years, and feel that their business philosophy and strong commitment to clients will prove an excellent match to my own. It will allow me to carry on looking after my clients and staff from a secure Nottingham base."

He will bring a wealth of experience to the practice along with high quality staff and clients. In the financial climate in which we all currently operate, it's good to have a positive story."
