  • ‘Rebecca Steer's human approach to her work meant she quickly built a rapport with the legal team and business stakeholders. Her advice was clear and pragmatic, which was exactly what we needed and much appreciated under the circumstances. Rebecca is quite simply a fantastic ally to have in your corner in complex matters when time is not on your side.’

  • ‘Charles Russell Speechlys LLP have a unique skillset when it comes to dealing with IP services. We had an issue that was very unique and they dealt with it quickly and efficiently, helping us settle the matter in a very timely manner. Without their expertise, we would have either gone down a route that would have dragged out the issue to a timeframe that would have exacerbated that situation, or resulted in a more costly resolution. ’

  • ‘Rebecca Steer's ability to understand and work with start-ups is unique. She maintains high standards and plays a vital role in preparing them for success.’

  • ‘Rebecca Steer at CRS has been instrumental in giving me the confidence to better protect my IP and to converse with clients in a practical way. Plus the ability to simply strategise and think about the next 5-10 years of the business with Rebecca has been a breath of fresh air and much needed in my field.'

  • 'Rebecca Steer has been thorough, responsive, strategic yet highly pragmatic. Delivers her advice in an accessible way and always explains the pros and cons and I have not had this level of attention to detail nor excellent output with great attitude.'

  • ‘Rebecca Steer took time out of her busy schedule to help us with quite a unique IP issue that arose suddenly. Rebecca was knowledgeable and efficient, providing us with insight and choices for how to deal with the situation. ’
