“First class in every way from the top silks down to the pupils.” “One of the very best criminal sets, it is brimful of talent.”
“The clerks are professional and keep to their word. There are never any diary clashes and they resolve problems in advance.” The director of clerking, Julian Campbell, is described as “having always been excellent.” He works alongside senior practice clerk Jack Shah, who is noted for the efficiency and enthusiasm with which he goes about his work.
“The set has very efficient and able clerks.” “The director of clerking Julian Campbell is outstanding. He is very commercial but sensible, and he understands the pressures solicitors are under.” “The clerks are easy to speak to, go above and beyond and are always available. They have been on top of everything during the pandemic and it has made their clients’ lives much easier.”
“They are fantastic and the senior clerk, Julian Campbell, will go a long way to suggest personalities you will get along with.” “The clerks are very professional and courteous.”
“The clerks are highly organised and responsive. They always make time to organise the calls you need and are flexible in terms of organising conferences.” “I really rate Louis Lockwood – he’s flexible and amenable while being a good promoter of the juniors at the set, which is a quality I respect in a clerk.”
