• ‘Birketts is a very well known firm and this has been proved when we recent had to use them to support and guide us through a dispute for my son and his employer I don’t know how it compares as I haven’t had to use solicitors for this type of dispute but we were treated with kindness and were talked through each step by Kurt as we went through.’

• ‘Kurt Glencastle was professional knowledgeable and he was kind and took time to explain what to expect, what could happen and explained each process as we went through our ordeal. Kurt’s expertise and experience was brilliant.’

• ‘The team has a particularly strong expertise in advising in relation to shareholders disputes and directors liability, which compliments their knowledge of the insolvency sector and wider commercial disputes. They also have a strong presence in high court litigation arising from M&As. The team work together well, with a very good knowledge base, and an approachable, unstuffy demeanour. They have both commercial acumen and pragmatism and deal with matters with great efficiency and drive.’

She shone in her successful defence of an application for expedited trial in a restrictive covenant case, where unusually expedition was refused. Hayley Songhurst - an oasis of calm in a storm, she is incisive with a strong focus on client care. Hayley has a strong presence in commercial litigation and is assured in her handling of cases.’

Someone you would want in your corner when the stakes are high.'

Bethany Kent has always been on hand for support and has assisted in legal matters pertaining to civil dispute resolution.
