Testimonials

  • 'Excellent team, always superbly prepared and will leave no stone unturned when it comes to getting the best for their clients.'
  • ‘I worked with Nazir Mirza on cases arising out of the Grenfell Tower disaster. An excellent lawyer, and instructions from her were always clear and comprehensive. She is a very committed lawyer. I was struck by how pragmatic and efficient she is. I recommend her unhesitatingly.’
  • ‘Renu Daly made me feel listened to. She was patient when talking to me, allowing me time to compose myself before moving on, regularly checking to make sure I was alright to continue. She took time to discuss what she and the firm could offer as well as what was expected of me. At all times, I felt informed of the next steps, possible timescales, etc. I couldn't have asked for better representation. She spent time talking to me rather than simply sending out reams of paperwork for me to trawl through.’
  • ‘Staff take the time and patience to let clients discuss sensitive issues.’
  • ‘Renu Daly has been the best for me so far. Not only is she sympathetic when dealing with delicate personal matters, but she also does not rush you into making rash decisions.’
  • 'Rebecca Thomas is enormously highly regarded and genuinely cares deeply about her clients. She knows the industry backwards and has the respect of counsel, judges and experts alike.'
