What Clients Say
Through the sale of our restaurant, we engaged the team at DW Fox Tucker, primarily the services of Marianna, to help us navigate the sales process. Marianna, was nothing short of excellent in her service, helping us understand what was required by all parties. Her solution orientated approach made her a pleasure to deal with, and as such we highly recommend her and the team.
