• ‘The Lewis Silkin team always provides timely and business practical advice.’

• ‘James Gill and Elizabeth Burton work quickly and accurately and are very pleasant to work with.’

• ‘The team at Lewis Silkin stands out for their deep industry knowledge, commercial acumen, and pragmatic approach to legal advice. They consistently demonstrate a strong understanding of the sectors they operate in, which enables them to provide tailored, commercially sensible guidance rather than abstract legal theory. This makes them particularly valuable to clients who need advice that is both strategic and actionable. What distinguishes them further is their responsiveness. Compared to other firms, Lewis Silkin offers a rare combination of top-tier expertise with a personable, business-focused mindset. I have full confidence in instructing and recommending them.'

• ‘Alan Hunt is pragmatic and highly attuned to client needs—he manages matters proportionately, always with a sharp eye on value for money when advising on strategy and options. He ensures the right people within his team are deployed to handle the work efficiently and appropriately, which gives me complete confidence when instructing him. I have recommended him to others without hesitation.'

• 'Roch Glowacki is exceptionally bright and consistently delivers timely, thorough, and well-reasoned advice. He is someone I trust to engage directly with clients and counterparties alike—even in complex or sensitive deal contexts—thanks to his clear judgement, calm manner, and ability to navigate tricky situations effectively. He always presents a range of options supported by sound risk analysis, which is invaluable for complex decision-making. Together, they exemplify the firm’s strengths in combining legal rigour with commercial practicality.’

• ‘The depth and breadth of the practice has been helpful to us. Specifically, Roch Glowacki's understanding of tech and AI makes this team unique. Roch has a deep understanding of the way the AI we're using in our product works and therefore can analyse the risks effectively.’

• ‘Roch Glowacki is intelligent, technically excellent, and exceptionally commercial. He has a deep understanding of the real day-to-day challenges facing an early-stage tech company, and he is able to advise with these challenges in mind. This level of commerciality isn't standard in the lawyers we have worked with, and it's something that really stands out about Roch.'

• 'Roch is highly responsive, communicates clearly and manages resources well.’
