The Ipswich office of Ellisons Solicitors plays a central role in the firm's corporate and commercial practice, which is led from Chelmsford by Paul Forsyth. 'The depth of expertise is truly impressive', remarks one client. The experience of M&A specialists Petra Sharp (who is known for 'clear, good and timely advice') and Andrew Fleming is key to the local offering. 'Approachable and accessible' senior associate David Heller in Bury St Edmunds is also recommended. He assisted Sharp with advising Playdate App Limited on numerous angel and VC investments.
