Notable practitioners
Fiona Gavriel
Fiona Gavriel handles issues surrounding bribery and fraud on behalf of individuals facing criminal investigations. She offers additional experience in rate-fixing cases with cross-border implications.

Fiona's client-handling skills are as good as I have come across. I suspect that, over the next decade or so, she will be regarded as one of the star solicitors in London.

Fiona gives her attention to a case in a way that leaves the client feeling in very safe hands and extremely positive about the outcome. She never lets a client down.

Fiona is a star, rightly recognised by colleagues and clients as outstanding in her work and approach.

David has great experience of all manner of complex cases and sees new points.
