He dealt with the difficult situation extremely professionally giving me great advice all the way through and got an excellent result for me. Richard is a very supportive lawyer to his clients who had a very clear strategy right from the start which worked very well. I have no hesitation in recommending him. A very grateful client. "

    " I have known Richard for many years now as a colleague and advisor, I really value the way he works and his commercial perspective. The nature of his work presents some complex situations that he handles sensitively and in a very human way, this is a real skill. His calm and pragmatic approach makes him stand out as an advisor. I don't think of him as a lawyer, he's a business man who just happens to be a great lawyer. He is creative, makes great connections and sees the bigger picture. I trust him and would use him every time. "
