Profile
"Boris managed to strike the perfect tone to push this one to a resolution and made the right call in getting the directors together for a non-legal discussion at the critical point of the mediation when a walk-away looked the most likely outcome. This decision was instrumental in successfully steering the parties to settlement."
"Boris was very good, patient and understanding. He built a good rapport with my client. He was helpful for me-as the solicitor -in giving advice re the process where necessary. I would use him again."
