Testimonials
“Knapp Richardson have been my ‘go to’ Costs Lawyers for years. Lisa Arbon-Donovan is superb. Accurate, responsive, commercial and great fun to work with!”
Warren Foot, Managing Partner Fulcrum Chambers Ltd
“The LFB instructed Lisa Arbon-Donovan at Knapp Richardson in July 2019 to assist with the management and oversight of the costs relating to Grenfell Tower. This case was and remains extremely complex with multiple external providers and oversight from insurers.
I would highly recommend Knapp Richardson for their client care as well as their proven expertise in advising on costs surrounding highly complex and high-profile litigation.”
Yvonne McKenna - Head of Litigation, London Fire Brigade
“I was recommended to Knapp Richardson in the mid 1990s when, as head of litigation at Gordon Dadds, I was looking for a firm of costs lawyers to draft an inter partes bill for a substantial amount in a complex IT dispute involving over 14,000 documents. I was so impressed with the service that they became our go-to costs lawyers for the rest of my career as a solicitor (and beyond). Their approach is to be both thorough and thoughtful, combining their extensive knowledge and experience with a light touch that makes them a pleasure to work with.”
Hugh Elder, Civil and Commercial Mediator, former Managing Partner of Gordon Dadds
“Knapp Richardson are our costs lawyers of choice. They have assisted us on several occasions. One of these matters went to a full taxation hearing lasting several days. The outcome for both my firm and the solicitors, an international law firm, was so good that the solicitors used Knapp Richardson’s services on other matters.
I have recommended them to other parties and will continue to do so.”
Heath Sinclair - Insolvency Practitioner
