Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- ‘Louisa Robbins and James Preece are the pre-eminent professional negligence practitioners. Their recent acquisition of Martin Paxton - another very well respected partner in this area - only strengthens the team further. James is smooth as silk but always up for the fight; Louisa is the iron fist in the velvet glove and as on top of the details as any lawyer anywhere.’
- 'As one of the 2 Equity Partners in the Team, Louisa Robbins understands more about the world of surveying than some surveyors themselves. She advises in an accessible, commercial manner and is always thoroughly prepared for meetings/mediations/hearings with an elephantine memory for key details.'
