PROFESSIONAL
1) Having instructed Elizabeth in a variety of civil matters ranging from bankruptcy/insolvency matters to fast and multi track contractual claims, and even housing and landlord and tenancy proceedings, it is fair to say that she is an exceptional all-rounder. She is always well prepared and has a deep understanding of the issues at hand, as well as being personable yet professional when meeting lay clients. Client feedback is always highly complementary and it is for this reason we continue to instruct Elizabeth on many matters. She returns instructions in a timely manner and always has time for a call to discuss any potential questions or issues that arise within the case. Elizabeth’s drafting is always clear and well versed and her advocacy skills are outstanding, she is quick, can articulate her points effortlessly and is a sharp cross examiner. She is highly recommended and is a rising star in our eyes.
2) Having experienced Miss Fisher’s impressive advocacy prior to her joining chambers, extending instructions to her once at 33 Bedford Row was an obvious choice. Her careful and diligent approach gives me great confidence that my client’s interests are in safe hands. I would not hesitate in recommending her to my instructing solicitor colleagues.
