‘Luckey McDowell and Ian Roberts as partners are both extremely knowledgeable of the subject matter, very responsive and available at any hour of the day. They make you feel often that you are their only client. Especially while working with Luckey, you appreciate his balance of the technical nature of the issue with strategy and the business elements.’
