Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Bates Wells has a highly experienced team. There is good collaboration with other legal firms/ property agents when representing the client. You always feel that you are in safe hands.’
‘Stand-out individuals include Malcolm Headley and Amy O'Gorman. Both are very approachable and offer practical solutions to complex tasks.’
‘Our requirement was fairly straightforward but required a lot of chasing and following up with different parties over many months. The team (principally one partner) was thorough, highly professional and kept up the pressure, while also being practical, providing sound advice, and being able to move quickly when needed.’
'For me, what is extremely gratifying with Bates Wells is that partners and associates alike actually answer the phone when you call them – they therefore, make themselves readily available, which is most refreshing these days.'
'Malcom Headley is always responsive with sensible and practical suggestions and solutions.'
'Excellent practical advice and Mark Traynor is recommended. Partner led transaction team that are commercially minded and get things done!'
