A Parabis spokesperson said: 'The sale is due to complete in November 2015 and represents a positive outcome for our people and clients alike.'

The sale is to a consortium of new owners, including founders Andrew McDougall and Tim Roberts. Discussions with another potential buyer, law firm Keoghs, fell through.
