Helpful across several cases in short timeframe
I have used Darwin Gray for two main issues recently - firstly suing a builder who walked off a job - Sion helped me negotiate and receive a settlement in an awkward case and before the need to go to court. He was helpful, approachable and provided great advice to guide me on the right track in chasing this.
Secondly Siobhan and Stephen assisted with a commercial transaction involving sometimes complex and urgent interactions with govt. regulatory bodies as well as a tight overall deadline. They were very responsive and helpful in dealing with a myriad of issues created by several parties (buyer, seller, government, agents and solicitors) being involved in the process. This also involved multiple sub-cases dealing with some employment law and landlord/tenant contracts as part of the larger transaction.
Overall very happy with their help and approach and will return - hopefully not too soon!

Always efficient and helpful service with expert legal knowledge.
We have worked with Darwin Gray for several years tapping into different departments including property, commercial and HR so we can confidently say that they are an outstanding firm to do business with.
They are great solicitors to work with. Not only do they provide expert legal knowledge, but they do so in an easy to understand and friendly manner.
We have always found them to be efficient, approachable and a pleasure to deal with. They provide clear and sensible advice, offer excellent communication and we feel that they represent good value for money.
When running a business, it's important to have a law firm that is there when you need them and one that you can rely on to get things right, the first time. Darwin Gray does just that whilst having a really nice bunch of people to work with. We'd highly recommend them.

Highly recommended!
The training delivered by Fflur and the Team was exceptional; it was aimed at just the right level, and punctuated with real life examples of when things go wrong.
Thank you for a great series of HR training sessions!
