“Not only do they deliver unambiguous, high-level legal advice and expertise, they both provide Garland Waddington clients with a level of empathy and reassurance that is essential when navigating legal situations.

Meanwhile, Ms Downs said on her new role: “I like to think I add value in saving them time and money through better outcomes as a result of years of experience and my understanding of the areas of business and property law.
