Bio
Robert Anthony QC
I would have no difficulty in recommending James as a Solicitor or representative at any tribunal or court. I have known his work for many years. His preparation is meticulous. He always identifies and addresses the important and finer legal points. His court presentation as well as being thorough is courteous and appropriate. His legal ability covers many different areas of law. He not only keeps up with the law but with technology and is adept at all aspects of computing and social media.
