Testimonials

  • ‘There is a very tight team involved in their insolvency litigation who keep each other informed of case developments.'

  • ‘The most "stand out" feature is their commercial sense. Their communications are clear, they don't use jargon and show a willingness to understand the other side's position, rather than taking an entrenched position.'

  • ‘Alan Munro is a partner who I have used for many years and who is well versed in insolvency litigation. He becomes invested in the matters he is engaged to assist with.’
