Testimonials

Charles’ clients appreciate his attention to detail and his commercial approach.

“Charles is a first rate lawyer. He has always been excellent and is very knowledgeable.”

“Charles is very commercially minded and more than any other lawyer I have used, he really listens. What I particularly like about Charles is that, unlike other lawyers that I’ve dealt with, you don’t have to repeat anything. His ability to build and retain a complex picture in his mind is very impressive. You can almost hear the cogs turning in his sizeable brain as he listens carefully, asks pertinent questions and builds a strategic viewpoint.”

“Charles’ greatest asset is his attention to detail and his ability to retain innumerable aspects in his mind at any given point in a dispute, often remembering minor comments from 3-4 weeks earlier, which transpired to be important as the case developed. This combined with the way he very calmly and coolly presented the case meant that the opposition were blown away. Charles was clearly infinitely better prepared than the other side and their arguments collapsed almost immediately. Charles left no room for error and was unquestionably several steps ahead of the other lawyers.”

“Charles is not ‘a leading lawyer in Yorkshire’ as cited by the directories, he is ‘The leading lawyer in Yorkshire.”

“Whenever things get a little bit tricky with the business, Charles is inevitably the very first person I turn to.”
