They are always able to answer our bizarre questions and find a way through tricky situations. They have developed fixed fee ET options for us which means we can save costs. They have excellent client webinars and updates which are very much appreciated. ’

He has a very pragmatic attitude and provides practical advice to help us resolve all of our tricky issues. He makes it look very easy and knows the law inside out. He has a wonderful team of lawyers around him, which means that I am happy with whoever is taking on my work, and I know that he also supports them with his guidance where needed, as he is very hands-on with cases. ’
