The team advising Acorn Motor Group was led by corporate partner Adam McGiveron, and included support from partner Emma Bryant, banking senior associate Andy Rushfirth, employment senior associate Charissa Upton, real estate associate Laura Gorman and corporate trainee solicitor Kajol Harrar. 

Adam McGiveron said: “We are delighted to have supported Acorn Motor Group on their latest acquisitions as they continue to expand in the new and used car sales market – we look forward to continuing to support them as they continue to drive further growth.”
