Ronan Dunne is the most attentive lawyer I have ever used. He unfailingly responds promptly to our requests and has an unerring ability to swiftly grasp issues. He carries his profound expertise with ease, rapidly identifies the key elements of any enquiry, and explains complex legal issues and tactics to non-lawyers clearly and (when necessary) patiently. Most remarkably, in my experience, Ronan understands our broader commercial and strategic priorities and tailors his advice accordingly. He does not see legal advice as an end in itself, but rather a jigsaw piece. I recommend Philip Lee, and particularly Ronan Dunne without a moment’s hesitation.
