"having worked with Rob on several occasions I found him a highly commercial and pragmatic lawyer, with an excellent grasp of the business context within which a transaction is taking place, totally focussed on getting the right outcome for his client"

"He does not only have excellent skills within his legal field of work but also provides his clients with a great understanding of business related issues which was very essential for the projects at stake.  We really enjoyed having Mr Pitcher in our complex teams as a stable and reliable partner."

"Robert Pitcher is a commercial, sensible and highly knowledgeable guy.  It's always great to see a partner of his standing muck in with his associates throughout the night and into the early hours of the morning.  Certainly assisted the in house legal team - by taking direction and running with the instructions."
