Grant Thornton advises Brady Solicitors

Brady Solicitors is a market leading legal services specialist, focussed on the property management sector. The firm has built long-standing relationships with its clients and a strong reputation across the property management sector, serving a broad client base ranging from nationwide managing agents to individual leaseholders.

Following a period of sustained growth, the shareholders recognised that partnering with the right investor would allow the business to accelerate its expansion through investment in technology, AI and talent, while continuing to build on its reputation as the go-to firm in its niche.

Brady Solicitors chose to work with Grant Thornton due to our strong local presence, private equity expertise and deep sector knowledge. The team’s collaborative approach, broad investor network and proven track record made Grant Thornton the natural choice to support the shareholders' growth ambitions.

From the outset, we provided hands-on guidance to the shareholders, helping them understand what a transaction would involve - from partner selection and deal structuring to execution, and what ownership could look like beyond completion.

Working with the shareholders, we defined the right investor for the business, not just in terms of valuation, but also the right fit, ambition and long-term vision. Our corporate finance team designed a process to deliver exactly that, drawing strong investor interest and maintaining competitive tension throughout.

Combining deep legal services sector expertise with established private equity relationships, investment was secured from LDC that met the shareholders' objectives - leaving them prepared for the partnership, not just the deal.
