In a statement, both companies said they were delighted to reach the agreement, with the full Roger Mitchell (UK) team joining Nason Davis effective from January 19.

The directors of Nason Davis described the agreement as a great opportunity for both 

independent businesses, saying there was a “terrific synergy” between them.
