We've completed 30+ acquisitions of our own — and counting.
That's the difference.

dns Corporate Advisory is part of the dns accountants group — a UK accountancy group built by acquisition. We advise owner-managed businesses on deals from £500k to £10m, whether you're selling your life's work or building a group of your own.

A deal only works if it works for both sides

As active acquirers ourselves, we bring direct transaction experience to every engagement. We act for owner-managed businesses, acquisitive groups, and investors in the £500k–£10m enterprise value range.

Led by Aman Bhardwaj, our team has collectively advised on and completed over 30 acquisitions of our own.

Every adviser at dns has direct deal responsibility. No observers, no trainees on your transaction. Senior people doing the work, accountable to you from day one.

Aman and his team were instrumental in structuring and negotiating the right deal for our acquisition. Their due diligence was meticulous, resulting in a watertight contract.
