'Sharmilla Bhima has been excellent in her service delivery. She impressed me with her ability to appreciate both the legal and commercial aims of the client. She was proactive in guiding on aspects that we had not thought of, but which would have an impact on our transaction and timeline to closing. She was available to discuss and her turnaround time was commendable.'
'Yahia Nazroo is a calm litigation specialist with a good knowledge of local and offshore law. Yantee Hurnaurn-Calcutteea is a very hard-working junior.'
