Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Max Harnden and Sian Walker are my most frequent advisors, they both listen carefully to my issue, understand the problem and the wider commercial implications and suggest rounded, grounded, and straightforward approaches to the problem. We also achieve this with a sense of humour and understanding. It is a very refreshing approach to onerous legal problems.’
‘We are a small family owned business and need a legal team we can trust but also recognises what a small business needs compared to a large company. Gotelees recognised that we didn't want flash but it was important that the finer details were spot on. We also felt that they listened to us and appreciated that nobody knows our business better than us using this information to fine tune their advice.’
