Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘In my view, Bark & Co is one of the pre-eminent firms in this area with great strength and depth in the team. They also have a very effective tax/civil department that complements what they do, particularly with regard to fraud. In addition, they are a really friendly firm where everyone seems to get on. They work well together and provide a very pleasant working atmosphere for counsel and private clients alike.'
'I would wish to single out Giles Bark-Jones, who remains the backbone of the firm and very much in control of the whole show. He is an excellent lawyer and very much the power house that drives the firm forward and ensures that it provides the excellent quality of service that it does.'
- 'There is a huge strength in depth in the team, and their experience of dealing with HNW clients means that they are extremely well placed to advise and assist with the reputational and broader concerns that clients facing criminal allegations will often have.'
‘Giles Bark-Jones is still one of the real heavyweights of the criminal defence world. He is actively involved in client management and providing high-level strategic and tactical advice. Clients really know that he is on their side.'
- 'David Byrne has a remarkable knack of finding the fault-lines in a case that no one else spots. He has decades of experience in the biggest cases, and has lost none of his hunger for the fight.'
- 'Peter Finbow is someone who provides a reassuring presence in any case. He has excellent instincts and is adept at spotting and resolving issues long before they become a problem.'
