The music team at Simkins is extraordinary in providing a holistic understanding of the legal aspects as well as best practices in the music industry.
They take a sensible pragmatic approach to a contentious situation. Their legal analysis of the issue is good and they provide a number of options to me as the client as to how to move forward.
Simkins are one of the leading specialist firms in music. They have an excellent team, with deep industry knowledge and a thorough understanding both of their clients’ needs and the specialist areas of law involved.
Always had a 100% great experience with Simkins. Superb attention to detail and you come away with a sense of confidence and security in the deals that give great comfort and freedom to move forward.
The culture of the firm is very much about providing excellent client service and it has a high level of sophistication when working on a transaction.
