Partner, Head of Dispute Resolution

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Darren qualified as a solicitor in February 2007 and joined Berry and Lamberts as a Partner in our Dispute Resolution team in June 2021. Prior to joining Berry and Lamberts, Darren worked in a niche central London practice before moving to a medium-sized regional firm where he specialised in civil and commercial dispute resolution. Darren has a wealth of experience advising and representing clients in civil and commercial disputes. Darren has represented clients in the High Court and County Courts on numerous occasions but he understands that court proceedings should be a last result for clients when it comes to resolving the majority of disputes. Darren takes great pride in providing clients with straightforward and commercial legal advice. He understands the importance of explaining the range of dispute resolution options available to clients as a cost-effective and often quicker way to resolve disputes when compared with court proceedings. As part of the service that Darren provides, he ensures that he gives his clients clear costs and time estimates when advising of the options and commercial risks associated with the litigation and dispute resolution process.

Five stars just aren’t enough!

I cannot recommend Darren highly enough, he is extremely professional but also friendly and caring. If he tells you he is going to do something he does it! He also keeps you fully informed at all times and his explanations are clear and concise. I never experienced any problems in contacting him, he never let me down. What more can I say, he’s just brilliant!

My experience with Darren in charge of the case has been nothing but exceptional. He has always been available to respond to any query. The case concluded successfully down to Darren’s hard work and that of our amazing barrister Steven.
