"The practice provides an excellent service, not only in relation to the actual legal advice and services provided, but also in relation to administration and additional services. In particular they invoice us timeously, keep us informed of potential changes to charges during a case, deliver training to our staff and offer access to additional services such as briefing sessions and workshops and an advice line. Mostly though, they are just great to work with."
