‘Super responsive and commercially aware of our business requirements - they just get it.’
‘Working with John Nevin, you really feel like you are in a safe pair of hands.’
‘The Slaughter's approach was to become an embedded part of our team, which made collaboration, discussion and challenge on our project a more fluid and beneficial conversation. Having a two tiered support structure from Slaughter's enabled us to achieve a 24/7 involvement across numerous areas and provided us with a strong legal input throughout varied topics, which may not necessarily have been purely legal in nature, but benefited us by allowing us to have diverse view points for consideration and action.’
‘Both John Nevin and Mark Gulliford demonstrated an expert knowledge in the project they were supporting us with as well as a highly informed understanding of our business and priorities. They retained a strong commercial aspect to all of their advice to us and sought objective and innovative solutions to make sure we could achieve our project objective successfully, without legal points becoming blockers.’
‘Great knowledge of the subject matter, very well resourced with the right individuals, responsive with commercial advice, working with you to resolve issues.’
‘John Nevin is approachable, knowledgeable and solution orientated. His senior associate, Simon Bartle, is excellent, responsive, knowledgeable, helpful and extremely hard working.’
‘The service delivered by Slaughter & May is excellent. It's a given that the work they produce is done to the highest standard but they couple this with a commercially pragmatic approach that targets client priorities in business without wasting time on points that only matter to the lawyers.’
‘The commercial property team at Slaughters are always quick to respond and fulfil queries accurately. They provide practical and tailored advice, avoiding a 'cookie-cutter' approach that can be prevalent in the market. The team is approachable and communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels which makes project delivery run smoothly and it is one less aspect for me to worry about!’
