4 pines

“We have a saying at 4 Pines: “take what we do seriously, but not ourselves”. And somehow we seem to find our way to working with people who embody a similar ethos. Peter was recommended to me and the 4 Pines board to assist the business in responding to a buyout approach from AB InBev, the world’s largest brewing group. To say Peter is not only ninja like, but an absolute weapon in what he does, is an understatement. We witnessed an entire big firm M&A team try to disassemble him, however akin to a Bruce Lee film or Uma Thurman during the Crazy 88 scene in Kill Bill – there was only one man standing at the end. In meeting Peter, we had the pleasure of working with a highly skilled, experienced and disciplined professional, who worked in harmony with us to deliver a result that was nothing short of exceptional. Most importantly (for us), Peter is also a guy you can have a couple of beers and celebrate success with, and someone who I’m now honoured to call a friend. Cheers again Peter.”

Lion

“Lion has worked with Cadence Legal since 2016. Peter is an excellent partner to our team, providing perfectly pitched support on several M&A and corporate restructuring projects. Working with Pete is like having another senior team member on board – he spends the time to really ‘get’ the project and then integrates seamlessly with our team. His advice is commercial, clear and concise and we’re very happy to have him deal directly with the business. Very outcomes-focused, always available and willing to be called on as often or as little as needed. And he’s great fun to work with, always good for a laugh or a beer or both.”

“I have been utilising Cadence Legal’s services for some time now across a range of needs, including support with a number of bolt-on acquisitions and various commercial contracts spanning our domestic and international needs. Peter’s approach is wonderfully practical and results-oriented, and his deep familiarity with branded food and beverage means he is instantly embraced by our business people. When I ask Peter to assist on something, I can rest assured it’s being done properly and efficiently. He’s a natural extension of, and reflects well upon, our inhouse legal capability.”
