The Legal 500 was also impressed by the “very personable and knowledgeable” Kelly Edwards who has a “vast array of experience to call upon” as well as the “truly excellent team of junior solicitors” including “absolutely excellent” senior associate Cate Maguire and Sophie Cantillon who has “excellent knowledge of the law and takes command of the situation”.
The Cambridge office was found to be a particular strength of the firm, which, led by the “highly experienced and diligent” Arron Bortoft, has a reputation for ’top-quality representation’, carrying the strength of the Vardags brand into the East Anglian market.
