1. Max Abrahamson:
Endorsed on Linkedin for dispute resolution, construction management, management consultancy and quantity surveying by Max W Abrahamson – international construction lawyer, visiting professor at King’s College, London and world famous author of “Engineering Law and the I.C.E. Contracts”
2. Redhall Group plc:
“We recently appointed Steve Fallows to undertake an independent review of a specialist construction company on our behalf.
His comprehensive report included several incisive observations and recommendations and was completed with both speed and sensitivity. His knowledge and experience, coupled with an ability to relate to staff at all levels meant that he was able to gain a valuable insight into the company’s underlying strengths and weaknesses.
Following his review, Steve was asked to manage the business on an interim basis while the long term plans for its future were resolved and later implemented.
We are currently in discussions concerning a further assignment in another specialist company.”
David Jackson
Chairman & Chief Executive
Redhall Group plc
3. Private Group of Companies:
“Steve Fallows of Fallows Associates carried out a detailed review of one of our subsidiary companies and, at my request, put forward possible options for its future.
His report highlighted several areas where there was scope for change and for improvement. It also detailed specific problem areas and recommended actions that could be taken to improve profitability and cash management. He was later instrumental in helping implement his proposals and in obtaining additional funding from the Company bankers and major shareholder.
I found Steve to be highly professional. He remained calm and focused during several periods of intense pressure whilst at the same time motivating the staff and providing creditors with a raised level of confidence.
He has the skills to improve cash generation by enhancing terms and managing contractual performance through tight controls.”
