DRL Emerdata v Nix & Nix v DRL and Emerdata
“I cannot recommend RIAA Barker Gillette (RBG) Solicitors highly enough. Their exceptional skill, dedication, and strategic brilliance secured a truly remarkable legal victory for me in one of the most challenging and high-stakes cases imaginable.
The case stemmed from the collapse of Cambridge Analytica in 2018, a company that had gained global notoriety following its involvement in the 2016 Trump presidential campaign. The claimants—billionaire-backed Dynamo Recoveries Ltd. and Emerdata Ltd.—sought damages from me, alleging breaches of fiduciary and statutory duties as well as misrepresentations. Additionally, there was my own cross-claim, which was also heard during the trial. These were immensely well-resourced parties, spending an estimated £10-15 million on a formidable, full-time legal team comprising numerous solicitors, junior and senior Counsel.
Despite the staggering imbalance in resources, RBG Solicitors rose to the challenge, delivering a stunning “David vs. Goliath” victory. Not only did all the claimants’ claims fail, but my cross-claim succeeded—a result that felt almost inconceivable at the outset of this protracted legal battle.
What sets RBG apart is their ability to devise and execute superior legal strategies under extreme budgetary constraints. Operating on a shoestring budget compared to the claimants, their team demonstrated unmatched professionalism, innovation, and resilience. Throughout the seven-year litigation, the claimants made successive applications, all of which RBG successfully defended against.
The ultimate judgment was not just a victory for me but a testament to RBG’s extraordinary expertise and determination. They left no stone unturned, always keeping me informed and confident even in the face of overwhelming odds.
If you are looking for a legal team with the intellect, tenacity, and creativity to deliver results—no matter how formidable the opposition—RBG Solicitors should be your first choice.”

“I was introduced to RIAA Barker Gillette (UK) when I needed employment contract advice. Patrick Simpson and Karen Cole were brilliant from the start. They took time to listen, asked pertinent questions, evaluated and gave me timely and good advice, checking in with how things were going.
I would highly recommend using RIAA Barker Gillette – I have also used them for corporate matters and Evangelos and Victoria were equally brilliant, timely and helpful with excellent advice.
Every contact that I have had with the firm has been first class.”

“Peter Drucker, an Austrian American management consultant, educator and author wrote ‘the most important thing in communication is to hear what isn’t being said’ and that is what Victoria excels at. During a recent complicated, but important transaction, Victoria was extremely professional and gave advice and insights that got us over the finishing line in a harmonious, excellent manner. I recommend Victoria without equivocation.”
