During a very difficult personal time Suzanne, Joanna and Meriel were always there for me to offer help and practical advice. I have benefited from a range of the firm’s expertise, covering family and employment law and have in fact already recommended them to friends who are happy with the service as well.

A wise and very experienced lawyer, who guided the process and provided a steer and direction. I had complete confidence in her expertise.

Having used Withers for my personal tax advice, Graham and Meriel were best placed to assist in relation to my move to the UK, to become CEO of the 'Agent Provocateur' brand. They not only gave clear, commercial advice but were able to marry specialist employment and private equity expertise in relation to a bespoke incentivisation package. They were always available and reacted very fast.

The King management team and I treasured Meriel’s calm and wise counsel during the Activision acquisition. She strongly defended our interests and gave us excellent commercial and practical advice.

I have worked with Meriel for many years and she is a superb lawyer. Thoughtful, insightful and when necessary bold. We have been involved in many situations together and charted excellent courses based on her fine judgement and counsel. I have no hesitation in recommending Meriel.
