  • ‘Very approachable and keen to get to a workable solution to issues as they arose.’

  • ‘I have worked extensively with Katie Phillippo on two major transactions. She has always been able to summarise the material issues that have arisen during the conveyancing process and looked to work to address the specific points giving me her opinion on what should be done where appropriate.’
