Penelope is just superb. She is one of those rare barristers who knows everything, yet is really nice. She is very responsive, very clever and highly commercial.

Penelope is someone I always want in my corner; you instinctively lean into her in tough moments. Quietly authoritative, she's so calm, wise and respected across the profession.

Penelope is highly regarded and top of the tree. Its her knowledge of the law and usability which really make her a standout. She is very good at ensuring she gets everything done.

She has that authority and gravitas needed for offshore cases, and is someone who can explain things to clients in such a good way.

Penelope is absolutely at the top of her game and such a class act. It is a pleasure to see her perform in court. She's charming, yet exceptionally robust.
