- Good knowledge, clear and concise communication.
- Myerson Solicitors’ commercial property team stands out for its strong technical expertise combined with a very practical, commercial approach. They provide clear, straightforward advice on lease transactions and are highly responsive throughout. What differentiates them is their proactive communication and attention to detail, as well as their ability to handle matters efficiently from start to finish. Compared to other firms, they offer the quality of a larger practice but with a more personal, partner-led service. They also make good use of technology and offer transparent, flexible billing, which helps make the overall process smooth and efficient.
- Sarah Cowen has worked with me on numerous projects and has consistently been a pleasure to deal with. She combines strong technical knowledge with a very practical, commercial approach, and always takes the time to understand my objectives. She is highly responsive, communicates clearly, and manages matters efficiently, which gives me real confidence that everything is under control. Her collaborative and approachable manner makes her easy to work with, and she plays a key role in ensuring transactions run smoothly.
- Sarah Cowen is so knowledgeable, responsive, and methodical; I feel like she has really gotten to know my business and therefore spots the smallest things in the detail. She has also educated me on a number of property-type issues.
- Highly approachable, providing to-the-point advice without the padding. Myerson is a great "phone a friend" firm, always there when you need them. All work is visibly partner-led, but they have great backup at the associate level also.
