'I have always been impressed by Anna Bradshaw's thoughtful analysis of the myriad of potential issues, arising in the matter before her.’
'Very personal practice, strong leadership across the group. Effective across different spectrum of the workstreams and areas my case covers.'
'Anna Bradshaw and her team have the depth and breadth that my clients need, as they cover both sanctions and export controls. They can provide efficient and top-quality advice on each subject as well as on the impact of both sanctions and export controls, when, as is very often the case these days, advising on a particular scenario requires expertise in both areas. This ability sets them apart, as I am not aware of any other firm with real depth in both areas. In addition, the firm has considerable expertise in financial crime, which so often is needed in sanctions matters. Everyone on the team is responsive, pleasant to work with, and easy to collaborate with on cross-border matters.'
'Peters & Peters have long been a leading name in the contentious financial services arena and in recent years have been acting in increasingly high-profile and significant cases.'
'P&P are a highly regarded firm with a great reputation. They are building their team in the area of contentious regulatory work and have good work.'
