  • ‘Lisa Barge and her team go above and beyond to ensure their advice is delivered in a commercial and implementable way for complex matters.’

  • 'The Eversheds practice are more competent and provide a more consistent client service than other competitors who we have worked with. I consider this is due to the close supervision and support exercised by the partners in the team, particularly Lisa Barge who makes it her business to check in on even more minor matters the firm is working on for us.’

  • ‘Lisa Barge is well known in the property litigation field and, as mentioned above, keeps a close eye on matters both large and small. Arren Thornton is also another notable lawyer in their team who we have worked with closely. Both are responsive, highly experienced and easy to deal with.’
