‘London-quality litigation.’
‘David Hitchcock – excellent tactical nous. Simon Brew – he has a good feel for how to get a case to a resolution.’
‘I have worked with Simon Brew for several years. He is excellent – very thorough, dedicated to his cases and good with clients.’
‘TWM’s team are great on the law and resolving disputes – they also know when to bring in experts to assist them and advise their clients and they do this early enough in the process for those experts to make a difference. As a result of early involvement of experts, they get a much better outcome for their clients than they would by simply fighting the case without this input.’

‘I have worked with David Hitchcock, partner and head of the department, for many years and am always impressed by him. He is calm, pragmatic and (unlike some other solicitors) actually aids the resolution of his clients’ disputes in an expeditious fashion.

TESTIMONIAL: “I first came across TWM a few years ago when an elderly lady needed assistance with her Will. Having the necessary power of attorney my wife and I liaised with TWM branch in Wimbledon.
So when I needed further assistance on updating and re-writing Company documentation including Articles of Association and share issues for the Directors (etc.) I made enquiries and was referred to Ms Charlotte Alexander based in the Guildford branch of TWM.
Over a period of just under a year Ms Alexander displayed prompt responses to any queries, gave valued professional direction and advice as well as displaying infinite patience. She was hindered by the reluctance of a few Directors to give up to date information and she skilfully suggested and achieved alternative procedures when necessary. She produced a template agenda for an AGM which enabled the decisions to be completed swiftly.
So overall I have been delighted with the outcome when dealing with TWM. The solicitors involved displayed specialist expertise allied with both a personable and professional approach. When I next need professional legal advice, I know that TWM have the necessary specialists to help. Thankyou.”
