‘Incredibly knowledgeable with industry defining case experience. A combination of brilliance and experience helped position the Millbank team in a differentiated and leadership position within the case. The partners had held leadership positions in the respective government agencies. The partners made themselves incredibly available throughout the case working on every level of the work-streams which left me with complete faith in their abilities to defend my corner.’
‘James Cavoli was exemplary throughout the case. He had an incredible grip on all the key work streams and was in the details such that he knew the content and law frankly better than the agencies we were up against. He was tenacious while also being able to collaborate well with other counsels to our benefit. His experiences at the other agencies were hugely differentiating and really aided our ability to deliver the outcome of choice. And finally, his work ethic was second to none.’
