He is always fast and responsive and knows how to run a file efficiently and is honest about where and how costs increase and how to avoid this, the other side permitting.

Helpful, friendly and professional
Apart from the initial consultation (via a video call), it was all done by phone and email. Language was not too jargon-filled but precise. Desmond kept on top of the case and provided regular appropriate updates.
