The team at Mishcon de Reya LLP is ‘easy to work with, responsive, clear and diligent’. The firm has strong relationships with innovative, IP-rich companies around Cambridge, but continues to expand the scope of its client base. Venture capital expert Erika McIntyre in London and Cambridge-based Charles Fletcher, who handles M&A, corporate advisory work, equity and debt fundraisings, and international investment transactions, co-lead the corporate practice. Adam Bradley is ’commercial in his approach and appropriately responsive’, and Chris Keen, who is head of the emerging companies group, is ‘very pragmatic and always tries to find a sensible and fair route forward’.

He has an amazing network and is almost preternatural in divining what the question behind the question is and in advising on the most pragmatic solution. To top it all off, he is also extremely personable so one is always certain of getting the right information in a very timely, instantly digestible, and very pleasant manner.'
