Testimonials

  • 'Excellent all-round service with prompt responses at all times.'

  • 'Robert Breckon is a phenomenal lawyer. He's a good communicator, efficient, shows attention to detail, and gives frank commercial advice where necessary. I am always particularly impressed with his ability to turn advice round at short notice. He is very familiar with the Guernsey judiciary and increasingly has the 'ear of the court'. In short, when I am working with Robert, I know his clients will always be in safe hands.'

  • ‘Of the all practices I have dealt with both in Guernsey and the UK, a stand-out element with F&F is that all team members are always available, responsive and helpful.’

  • 'Alison Antill - extremely professional, always available and quick responses to emails, even is minor queries but very important when needing reassurance.'

  • 'Robert Breckon and Alison Antill at Ferbrache & Farrell in the dispute resolution team are world class. Their rates are very fair and they are commercial about when they charge and what they charge. The partner leads the case at all times. I have worked with a number of offshore firms and also have extensive experience working with leading London firms. I would rate Ferbrache as exceptional by comparison not only to offshore but also to City firms.'

  • 'Robert Breckon is my main point of contact. He is an excellent advocate by any standard. He is extremely responsive, seemingly available at all waking hours, as well as being commercial, thorough and pragmatic. I've worked with a large number of City and offshore lawyers in my career and I would rate him as one of the best lawyers I've ever worked with.'

  • 'Alison Antill - she is a senior associate but the quality of her advice is at partner level. She is considered, careful and diligent. She understood exactly the nature of the dilemma and ensured her advice struck at the heart of the issues, which meant it could then easily be adopted for the purpose of advising a lay client.'
