  • ‘Jennifer Headon is a stand-out. She is super smart, gives excellent client service, takes the initiative, and is very robust when required.’

  • ‘The Birketts team in London has gone from strength to strength since it was started. Tom Quinn runs a really tight ship with a great set of associates in support. They are comfortable running high net worth finance cases and complex private law children. If you want to instruct a firm with a wealth of internal resources (tax, private client, international, etc.) then Birketts is a very good firm to instruct.’

  • ‘Tom Quinn is so experienced and yet has another 20 years in which to continue to build on his career. He really is one to watch.'

  • ‘The Birketts team started small but is growing apace. It still retains the feel of a small team, with partners all having direct oversight of cases and associates working alongside. There is a really sensible and clear structure to the team.'
