‘Stephen Burns - partner. Very empathetic and good at identifying the client's needs. Stephen is also particularly good at developing an appropriate strategy for the case going forwards. Charlotte Healy - associate - totally on top of her brief’
‘CRS are the real deal when it comes to commercial law. They have been doing this longer, and better than most - and have a number of exceptional practitioners, who know their area of expertise inside out and provide exceptional client care.’
‘Gareth Mills - exceptional client contacts, makes the most difficult commercial arbitration looks straightforward.
