“Paul Lunt is without doubt an expert in the field of shareholder dispute. He advised both myself and part of my family in a very acrimonious family dispute with compassion and thoughtfulness in what was a very volatile situation. Paul was always precise and accurate with his advice and took the time to explain to us all in simple terms what the implications of his advice would mean. A true gentleman in every way and as a person and a solicitor I could not recommend him highly enough.”

“Paul was recommended to me by a mutual acquaintance and I can honestly say it is the best introduction I have ever been given. He is an expert, extremely knowledgeable with the ability to communicate in a clear, concise and supportive manner. His website is a great source of information to anyone who is in a shareholder dispute. During my particular case I spoke to and was assisted by a number of the large London law firms before having Paul recommended to me, none of these had the expertise or commercial awareness of Paul, I only wish I had known about him on day one.”

"My business partners had cheated on me. Two people I would have trusted with my life had cheated on me. It was all I could think of. From first thing in the morning to last thing at night: they had cheated on me. For month after stomach-churning month, I thought of nothing else: they had cheated on me. Then I went to see Paul Lunt and within weeks it was settled to my utmost satisfaction. My stomach stopped churning. I could sleep again."

"Paul Lunt acted on our behalf in a complicated family company shareholder dispute. At times it was very acrimonious but it was always a stressful process to all concerned. Paul always acted supremely professionally but tempered that inherent professionalism with a personal reassuring human manner in relating both good and bad news which is essential to reassure clients who are not legally inclined. He guided us through a tough 4 year long case and successfully brokered a righteous and successful settlement against a very tough and belligerent opponent on the very steps of the court! I have no reservations in recommending Paul to any prospective client."
