Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘It felt personal and well resourced. They also were helpful in translating legal jargon into clear examples of what it meant. Where we also had a bespoke challenge that needed a specialist they were able to get them involved very quickly even when that expertise may not exist in their firm. The team also had a great set of junior staff that were really helpful and contactable.’

  • ‘It was thoroughly enjoyable working with Adam Dowdney, he always made himself available (pretty much at any hour and whilst on holiday). It was always easy enough to pick up the phone and determine a way forward without having lengthy back and forths via email. I also felt Adam had a good grasp of what was still negotiable and what was not and felt he pushed for the best result and had our best interests at heart.'

  • 'Tim Cargill is very details focused and we could rely on him well to have an excellent grasp on all aspects of contracts.'

  • 'Richard Devall was excellent. He was great at negotiating for us and really explaining contract terms and possible solutions to problems.'

  • 'I would recommend Adam, Tim and Richard highly.’

  • ‘The business has a depth of legal skills to cover all areas and can be trusted as a single source, with confidence that there is a partner and lawyer group suitable for every eventuality.’
