Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- ‘I worked with CRS teams in Doha and Bahrain. The team has expertise in Construction Disputes and Arbitration. They have in-house counsel who have the capacity to conduct cross examination very efficiently, which provides an edge to the party appointing them as the in-house team would have a thorough understanding of the case and can frame the cross examination questions in a much-detailed manner.’
- ‘I am working with Paula Boast, Chris O'Brien and the team in an ongoing arbitration case and have found them very talented and experienced in the construction field. Their understanding of arbitration proceedings are very thorough and they understand the language of the experts and role in arbitration. ’
- ‘Very diverse and collaborative team working on the case.’
- ‘Christopher O'Brien- very hands on, reliable and patient with us. Assertive but not aggressive and with good communication skills.’
