‘Alex Askew is a highly regarded dispute resolution specialist with a focus on shipping and international trade. He offers clear, honest advice, understands clients’ businesses well, and responds quickly with creative solutions.’
‘Top-tier firm for commodities at reasonable rates. Experts in commodity disputes. Always commercially oriented and looking for optimal solutions for the client.’
‘Alexander Askew is always on hand to provide top quality expert advice with a keen eye on the optimal commercial outcome.’
‘This firm is unique in that clients get the benefit of a smaller firm (flat structure, more cooperation between partners, sensible hourly rates, etc.) but the quality of the advice is as good as you would expect from a 'top', tier 1 commodities firm. It is always a pleasure to work with them.’
‘I have been working with this firm for years and they quickly became my go-to firm despite having access to much 'better' and bigger firms. The partners in this firm are humble, respectful and genuinely care to understand the client's business. They are extremely hands on and they get as involved in their client's matters as a junior solicitor would in the bigger firms.'
'Alexander Askew understands his clients' businesses and markets inside-out and his advice is always on-point, clear and readily applicable. He quickly grasps complex commercial issues, and his instinct has always been right. Andrew Patrinos is extremely sharp and runs a very tight ship; he takes into account his clients' profiles and needs when setting his firm's policies, which is something quite extraordinary nowadays in London.’
