DRL Emerdata v Nix & Nix v DRL and Emerdata
“I cannot recommend RIAA Barker Gillette (RBG) Solicitors highly enough. Their exceptional skill, dedication, and strategic brilliance secured a truly remarkable legal victory for me in one of the most challenging and high-stakes cases imaginable.
The case stemmed from the collapse of Cambridge Analytica in 2018, a company that had gained global notoriety following its involvement in the 2016 Trump presidential campaign. The claimants—billionaire-backed Dynamo Recoveries Ltd. and Emerdata Ltd.—sought damages from me, alleging breaches of fiduciary and statutory duties as well as misrepresentations. Additionally, there was my own cross-claim, which was also heard during the trial. These were immensely well-resourced parties, spending an estimated £10-15 million on a formidable, full-time legal team comprising numerous solicitors, junior and senior Counsel.
Despite the staggering imbalance in resources, RBG Solicitors rose to the challenge, delivering a stunning “David vs. Goliath” victory. Not only did all the claimants’ claims fail, but my cross-claim succeeded—a result that felt almost inconceivable at the outset of this protracted legal battle.
What sets RBG apart is their ability to devise and execute superior legal strategies under extreme budgetary constraints. Operating on a shoestring budget compared to the claimants, their team demonstrated unmatched professionalism, innovation, and resilience. Throughout the seven-year litigation, the claimants made successive applications, all of which RBG successfully defended against.
The ultimate judgment was not just a victory for me but a testament to RBG’s extraordinary expertise and determination. They left no stone unturned, always keeping me informed and confident even in the face of overwhelming odds.
If you are looking for a legal team with the intellect, tenacity, and creativity to deliver results—no matter how formidable the opposition—RBG Solicitors should be your first choice.”

Advice on redundancy, exit negotiations and settlement
“I would like to express my gratitude to RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) LLP and specifically, Patrick Simpson for handling my case with professionalism whilst being prompt and personable.
The process of redundancy can be very unsettling without the added stress of negotiation and paperwork. Patrick Simpson’s transparent communication, insightful expertise and patience limited the stress of this process and ensured a more than satisfactory outcome was efficiently achieved.
I can’t thank Patrick Simpson enough for giving me knowledge of the options available to me whilst listening to my needs & ultimately executing exactly what I asked of him in a professional and timely manner.
After this experience I would highly recommend Patrick Simpson at RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) LLP as he exceeded my expectations from start to finish.”
