“I found Veronica to be professional, conscientious and able to maintain a healthy balance between following our commercial instructions with that of a focused legal advisor.”


Deborah Haw, May 2016

After several bad experiences with other solicitors, it was such a pleasure to have Veronica look after our interests in the UK. Not only is Veronica excellent at her job, but she is also very genuine and a pleasure to deal with. Whatever questions and problems we put in front of Veronica, she seems to resolve them with ease. I cannot recommend her more highly.”

Alex provides sound, considered advice and has the ability to analyse and appraise the merits of any case, with the best interests of his client always in mind. Alex’s mind is skilled, brilliant and tactical in all of his dealings, especially if so required in court, his solution is pragmatic and commercial.”
