Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘I find the JMW team friendly and easy to work with, whilst at the same time always offering clear, pragmatic commercial advice.’
‘Richard Parkinson is great to work with. Always very accessible and prompt with responses and replies. The main thing though was that feeling of confidence that you are in "safe hands" and that the advice being given was up-to-date and robust.’
‘JMW have always been highly responsive. We always feel that we are a valued client, and nothing is too much trouble. Very much a pleasure to work with. Their strength in breadth has always been apparent, and we are sure that all the resources we have worked with have the necessary qualification and experience.’
- 'One quality - directness. Very clear advice - especially the advice we might not like to hear!’
