It acts for both regional and international clients from an array of industries including sport, construction, financial services and IT.

Strengths

The litigation team at Muckle is very capable of supporting complex pieces of work.

Muckle have been reassuringly engaged, helpful and empathetic throughout.

They offer specialist knowledge and the ability to react quickly and, where necessary, get outside advice on time.

I've never known them not be able to handle any commercial dispute whatever its size or urgency. The sheer depth of experience and real expertise they have is usually only found in a much larger team.

Muckle advised Premier Tech Water and Environment in relation to a claim brought by a former customer who alleged that Premier Tech supplied it with septic tanks which were subject to a number of inherent defects.
