‘I cannot speak highly enough of Oliver Cooper. He is a professional of the highest calibre. He is unfailingly diligent, utterly knowledgeable and entirely compassionate. His knowledge, bearing and professionalism was invaluable during an extremely difficult time for my family. He is responsive, collaborative and engaging.

He is a true gentleman and I would recommend him unreservedly, to any prospective client.” Scotty Mac
“My company used Philip Murphy in a long running construction law dispute against a difficult opponent which concluded recently. Philip Murphy was thoroughly professional throughout and his understanding of the law pertaining to my case was second to none, indeed it was fascinating to watch him calculate every possible scenario and arrive at the best possible way forward in a matter of minutes. From the very first meeting to the very last his advice was invaluable, relevant, concise and productive. I firmly believe the end result was the best possible outcome under the circumstances and this is entirely the result of Philip Murphy’s knowledge of law, acumen in knowing when to concede a point and strength in knowing when to push forward. In addition to his professionalism and advice, I always felt Philip Murphy had a high degree of empathy for our situation, given the stakes for us were high. He was very reassuring and calming throughout the process whilst being honest and up front about the consequences of each action. This is a talent in itself and should not be overlooked. I would strongly recommend Philip Murphy for any construction law cases.” Robert Walker
“I highly recommend Oliver Cooper as a criminal lawyer. A truly committed lawyer who keeps the interest of his client at the forefront at all times. Constantly working to get the most positive outcome, no matter how long it takes for his client.” JR
