Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘I have worked with Foot Anstey over the last 12 months and must say it's been a really positive experience. The team is extremely knowledgeable and has offered sound legal advice on quite a few schemes over the last 12 months.’
‘Most of my dealings are with Brian Hitchcock. Brian is very responsive to any requests for advice and turns work around in a fast and efficient manner. He is very approachable and follows up on advice given. He is able to explain legal concepts clearly, in layman's terms, to non-technical officers.’
