Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
'Clare Turnbull has built a team where the strengths and key capabilities revolve around efficiency and stability. Efficiency is achieved through experience and professionalism, which streamline tasks and improve the quality of proceeding with IP cases. Stability is conveyed through a firm's ability to handle current and future legal needs, indicating a reliable source of representation.’
'Clare Turnbull always advises us promptly on new regulations about IP laws, replies to our questions immediately and handles our trade mark cases with the most professional knowledge.'
‘David Birchall is keen to take into account both business considerations and legal considerations. He does not provide 'one size fits all' advice.’
‘We have a very positive impression of the firm. One thing I have appreciated with Venner Shipley from my recent experience is that they know to ask questions of us relating to our clients’ matters that we may not think to ask them ourselves, which allows us to provide the most efficient and effective intellectual property services to our clients in return.'
- 'We have had a very pleasant experience working with the paralegals and staff at Venner Shipley. Venner Shipley always provides clear contact points that allow for a better working relationship as we know all of the individuals we are working with at the firm.’
'David Birchall and Yoann Rousseau are both very responsive and timely in getting work done and are also excellent at explaining matters of local practice that are relevant to the matters that we work with them on, which may differ from our local practice in the United States.’
