Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘The criminal team operate at a much higher level than almost any other criminal firm I have encountered. The lawyers are of a higher standard, their recruitment is very effective, and their conduct of criminal litigation is on a different plane to most firms.’
‘Catherine McCarthy is immensely experienced, enormously hard-working, and thinking two or three steps ahead of the prosecution team. In 28 years of working for this firm, I have never been caught out in court by something that should have been done but that wasn't.’
