Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • 'Very approachable and open to working with other lawyers in different areas of business if needed by the client. In addition, they have a good network so for jurisdictions where they do not have their own office, they are able to identify and work with a firm known to them under their own terms of engagement.'

  • 'Norman Day is my key contact, he is very pragmatic and always happy to take an overall view on a client relationship with regard to fees and is very accommodating with regard to client deadlines.'

  • 'The team at Lexstone goes the extra mile. Always responsive with a pragmatic commercial approach. As a client, I feel properly valued and trust the advice given. They read the small print so I don’t have to!'

  • 'Marcus Stone has become a trusted advisor and friend over the years. He’s got my back as a client and even when I don’t have any ongoing transactions with him, he keeps me updated on legal developments that may affect my business. As a client I feel I can pick the phone up to him anytime and that’s invaluable.'
