(Leading Silks)Ranked: Tier 1Andrew Singer KC – Kings Chambers ‘Andrew has a firm grasp of litigation strategy and how best to deploy it in any given situation. His knowledge of construction is apparently bottomless, his appreciation for detail and nuance is excellent, and his softly spoken and gentle manner before the court appears to appeal to judges.’
