Patrick Simpson
I was introduced to RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) when I needed employment contract advice. Patrick Simpson and Karen Cole were brilliant from the start. They took time to listen, asked pertinent questions, evaluated and gave me timely and good advice, checking in with how things were going.
I would highly recommend using RIAA Barker Gillette - I have also used them for corporate matters and Evangelos and Victoria were equally brilliant, timely and helpful with excellent advice.
Every contact that I have had with the firm has been first class.

Partnerships and LLPs
I have little knowledge of legal matters, as I have worked as a firefighter for London fire brigade for the past 20 years as well as a mum and Carer. I knew James at RIAA Barker Gillette; after the recent death of my parents, who was fantastically supportive at a very hard time. When my business partners recently suggested setting up a LLP, that I knew very little about. I contacted James to ask if he could recommend somebody to advise me, and look at the draft agreement. He suggested Victoria who worked at his firm, who got in contact with me the next day. We discussed the LLP process and draft agreement and together, and made a solid clear plan on how to move forward. When speaking to me Victoria she really listened, and I felt she really understood my issues and concerns. I would highly recommend Victoria and her firm. Victoria was knowledgable, confident, professional and approachable. I found that her support made a rather stressful process was so much easier. I would not hesitate in recommending her or the firm to family and friends.

Corporate and Commercial
With the help of RIAA Barker Gillette I have been able to establish a Biotechnology company by acquiring promising intellectual property from an originator and agreeing a substantial financing round on the basis of that IP acquisition. The partner at RIAA Barker Gillette became my partner in begotiations with the third parties and took a pragmatic approach by focussing on Closing the deals to allow for release of value for both parties. The experience was challenging, exhilarating and eventually successful.
