Stefan Buxton: March 2019

Corporate & Commercial: “Great firm. Personal and pro-active service. Really understood our complex situation and provided clear options and, more importantly, relevant recommendations.”


Deborah, January 2019

Veronica has our complete trust. I can’t recommend Veronica more highly. She is a pleasure to work with. She is very diligent and met the tight deadlines that were set for her to complete the liquidation, which I realise were made harder by our late responses to her questions!”

Corporate and commercial


George – August 2018

Commercial: “I would 100% recommend this firm for its quality, approachability, delivery of commitments and undoubted competency.”


Lorraine: January 2018

“I became involved in an extremely contentious and complex legal issue concerning the trust fund of a minor, and the unwillingness of the trustees to disclose relevant information. The case was trying and laborious, but James and Alex were tirelessly positive, patient, and professional. I cannot recommend them highly enough!”

Wills, trusts and tax

Niall Haughian, February 2017

“Solaris Photonics is truly grateful for the tremendous professional effort undertaken by the RIAA Barker Gillette team. RIAA Barker Gillette has taken my start-up company that lacked structure and provided us with sound legal and business advice. RIAA Barker Gillette made the company both investable to Business Angels and overall commercially viable.”

Corporate and commercial


S. Arnold, February 2017

“The contracts my business required were complex. Veronica was efficient, friendly and took the time to ensure everything we needed was covered. Veronica used her expertise to suggest crucial additions that gave additional benefits to my business interests, that I had not even considered. Excellent service and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Veronica again and recommend her.”

Corporate and commercial


Morris Nourani, Hastings International: December 2016

Alex Deal is, simply, in a class of his own. Focused, dedicated and genuinely caring about his clients, he excels in getting into every tiny detail quickly. He attains a very sharp grasp of extremely complicated issues including cross-border commercial matters. He is a very bright, hardworking individual inside and outside working hours. He really protects his clients to the best of his ability. I would not hesitate to recommend him. Excellent manner with clients and highly gifted.”

Dispute Resolution


Peter Scholes, October 2016

Alex Deal and Laura St-Gallay responded immediately to my request for assistance even though the amounts at stake were relatively small. The advice I received was helpful and timely, and a satisfactory settlement was reached quickly in large part due to the high quality of the advice given. Fees have in all cases been very reasonable and I have very much appreciated the responsiveness of the team when I have needed advice at short notice” I would not hesitate to recommend the Firm for any matters relating to litigation/dispute resolution or employee/partnership law matters (where Alex has previously provided valuable advice).”

Dispute Resolution


Vanessa Lorenz, May 2016

“I was extremely satisfied with all aspects of the service. Veronica was extremely personable and she made me feel very comfortable when dealing with an unfamiliar situation.”
