Review Summary

Clients consistently praise the firm's lawyers as 'best lawyers' and 'very helpful,' highlighting their knowledge and ease in navigating corporate law. Multiple 5-star reviews emphasize positive experiences, calling the staff 'good people working for you.' However, one 1-star review accuses director Nigel McFadden of dishonesty, conflicts of interest, and the firm of illegal activity, though another review dismisses this as inaccurate and written with an axe to grind.

Leon WoodLocal GuideEdited 7 years ago

This Company and its directors are corrupt. They also conduct illegal activity. There is evidence of payouts to protect their interests. The Directors do not operate in accordance with the law society's best practice guidelines. Do not use this unlawful corrupt firm. Nigel Mcfadden is dishonest and acts in a conflict of interest with multiple clients. This corrupt man has been before the disciplinary board many times. Do not use him he cannot be trusted. Alex Ruth not a straight bone in the man.
