BDLS Annual Dinner 24th April 2025

Please extend my sincere gratitude to Counsel, Charlotte Kelly. She did an exemplary job, identifying and understanding the finer points of the case immediately, most of the details I am sure were initially unknown to her. I would recommend her services in a heartbeat.

A Happy Client

I would like to once again extend my thankfulness to your help, support and guidance at the hearing, which resulted in the best outcome and to me this has no price tag ever. 

Really impressed with your lecture, your energy and enthusiasm and despite running short on time due to other speakers overrunning you were really engaging - I'm always on the lookout for new Counsel on those types of matters (Tolata).

We would like to thank you for your immense professionalism and care. We have no doubt you achieved the best possible outcome. We felt safe in your hands and knew that you had our best interests at heart.

Jessica is a class act and her qualities exceed her call. Her preparation and written advocacy is excellent, and she really inspires confidence to both her instructing solicitors and the lay client.

I wanted to express my personal gratitude to Kingsleigh for yet another outstanding appearance yesterday, the work that he has put in has ensured that the result was much better than anticipated. Further, he has gone to exceptional length on a complex argument...he is a credit to College Chambers and an asset to the Bar.

Lyons Davidsons Solicitors

I engaged Daniel (Barrister, College Chambers) on a Direct Access basis. I found Daniel to be extremely professional, intelligent and relatable during our time, working together. Daniel’s honest, intellectual approach and keen eye to detail was superb and I can’t recommend and thank him enough for his ‘over above and beyond’ support for my case. I felt especially ‘heard’ and safe as a client especially when emotions were high. 

During the actual court proceedings, Kingsleigh delivered with confidence and professionalism.  I would like to commend his preparedness and outstanding professionalism throughout.  I would recommend him to anyone in the future as a legal representative.

Lay Client

Nicola is very knowledgeable in her areas of expertise and has an excellent rapport with clients from whom I have always had positive feedback.  Nicola is very helpful and promptly provides a concise detailed account in relation to outcomes from court hearings.

Karen Cox

Your relaxed but still focused approach was impressive, as was your persistence, notwithstanding by late afternoon a settlement still seemed unlikely. From my perspective, the mediation was a positive and ultimately successful experience.
