Expert, quick and practical/commercial advice

Ruth and her team have advised us over a great many years providing expert, quick and practical/commercial advice. A key asset of using Ruth is not only her very strong experience and expertise but her ability to forge relationships not only internally at all levels but also with the enforcement and regulatory agencies which can be particularly helpful and is a real asset.

Tough litigator

Notwithstanding the gentle persona of Gerard Khoshnaw, he is an absolutely formidable, brazenly tough litigator. The combination of these attributes makes him a solid, dependable choice across a range of commercial disputes. He is a good listener and a problem solver.

Instrumental in helping us overcome endless obstacles

Vijay was genuinely instrumental in helping us overcome the seemingly endless obstacles we faced to develop these ‘never been done before’ projects. Our high regard for Vijay and the Gateley team is borne out of years of their dedication to helping us.
