Strengths
Francis' strength is his advocacy and presentation in court which is top notch. His preparation is excellent, even in a fast-paced area.
Francis is easy to work with in terms of strategy. I've seen his advocacy and he's very quick on his feet. He is responsive, reactive and someone who takes the right points.
Francis has great client skills and is very articulate both in oral and written presentation. He's very bright and on the money, and his negotiation skills are excellent.
Francis is very good at the technical detail. His opinions are good and he goes into issues in a clear way, fully explaining the background.
Francis is very, very meticulous in his preparation and a fine advocate. He knows the points to press and the ones to concede, which is key when its a high stakes costs scenario.
