- 'Highly technical knowledge with significant experience in technology law as well as government law. No matter how complex documents have become and misunderstandings by a third party, Sparke Helmore are able to decipher the issues quickly and provide advice, and comfort, to us on the way forward. Having them be so solutions orientated rather than problem oriented is very helpful from an organisation perspective.'
- 'Dalvin Chien is an impressive and very knowledgeable lawyer in the tech space. What distinguishes him is an incisive attention to detail as well as a commitment to go above and beyond to provide cogent and practical advice promptly, make himself available and ensure that he understands and responds with a clear understanding of the client’s objectives. He negotiates firmly but fairly for his client in matters that are often highly contentious.'
