About Rona

Red Letter Law was founded in 2018 by Rona Dennison-Sharp, a corporate lawyer with over 20 years’ experience. Prior to founding Red Letter Law, Rona worked with two of Scotland’s leading law firms in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London and with several clients in-house.

Our experience

An invaluable asset!

“The quality of advice and service provided by Red Letter Law has been outstanding.  The responsiveness and turnaround speed have made Red Letter Law an invaluable asset to our business. We have complete confidence that all areas are covered, with a transparent fee structure that give us clarity and control over budgeting and cash flow – no surprises.

Rona is exceptionally knowledgeable, approachable, and proactive. Whenever a new matter arises, we know we can rely on her for timely, practical support as a trusted member of our team.”

Esther Binnie
Group Finance Director, Innis & Gunn

 

Invaluable Knowledge

“When our firm was set up in 2017, I had very limited experience of the legal complexities and ramifications of an LLP. Rona’s knowledge and manner were invaluable during this period and her ability to understand and articulate our needs in our LLP agreement were excellent.”

Jon Bowes
CEO, Lockhart Capital Management LLP

 

An invaluable resource!

“Rona was an invaluable resource to us at Glen Grant and Campari UK. She is an excellent lawyer and a drinks sector expert. She is commercially-minded and speaks plain English, not legal jargon. Above all, she is a pleasure to deal with.”

Pietro Mattioni
Former Managing Director, Campari UK

 

Gets things done!

“Rona is a deal-doer and gets things done. She takes a commercial approach to legal matters and understands our way of working and our approach. Her style and manner make the legal process a lot simpler!”

Gemma Hamilton
Investor, BGF

 

Nothing was too much to ask!

“Red Letter Law were recommended to us to help with our seed fund round and from the very start, Rona had a great grasp of what we were trying to achieve and how we wanted to do it. Everything happened smoothly and efficiently and nothing was too much to ask even with investors in various time zones”

Dane Ralston
Managing Director, iOpt Assets

 

An expert in her field

“Following advice from a contact who is heavily involved in M&A, we appointed Rona from Red Letter Law. It was clear from day one that Rona was an expert in her field with thorough attention to detail and responsiveness to our needs. Furthermore, when the banks and other solicitors seemed to throw obstacles in the way at the eleventh hour, Rona managed to get us over the line on time. I can highly recommend.
