"Great to work with and outstanding in terms of delivery."
"Timely, thorough and excellent commercial advice."
"[The funds practice has] excellent depth of knowledge and industry contacts. Great turnaround times."
"It is clear that the firm has in the last couple of years invested in hiring and developing its associate bench to provide substantive backup to the partners."
"Very knowledgeable and provides excellent legal support."
"[Banking] services are delivered in a highly efficient, pragmatic manner. Responsiveness by Cox's to queries is of a very high standard, both in time and quality."
"They focus on the commercial outcome as opposed to the strict legal position and while they may advise that a particular course of action is not possible, they rarely do so without offering alternatives on how you might achieve your objectives."
"Most large law firms provide good legal advice, however, sound commercial guidance is not always as readily available and this is the difference between this and the other firms as far as I'm concerned."
