Leading law firm Blake Morgan advised Greyhawk Intelligence Group Limited on its acquisition by Mintz Group Limited.

He was supported by Corporate Associate Sara Trevor, Tax Partner Rob Thomas, Bob Cordran (Partner) and Imogen Higgins-Smith (Associate), both Employment, Pensions Legal Director Gillian McCue and Property Solicitor Matthew Ivey.

Edward Palmer, Director of Greyhawk Intelligence Group Limited, commented:
