London law firm Payne Hicks Beach has enhanced its company and commercial department with key lateral hire, Nick Sayers.
Nick joins as a partner from Fox Williams LLP. Nick specialises in corporate finance, predominantly advising on mergers and acquisitions and listings on AIM. He has been instructed on a wide range of transactions and has a wealth of experience in deals of up to £100m.

‘I look forward to developing my practice at the firm.’
