Testimonials
My colleague was most grateful for your help in dealing with the above case and, though we were not successful, thought all the points that needed to be made were made. I wanted to write just to thank you for your help and support with the case. That is appreciated. I am sure Maria will pass on her thoughts to colleagues within the team here.
On numerous occasions we have used William on complex fraud matters. He is one of a select few preferred Counsel for Northern trials. Each time we have found that William undertakes his role with diligent professionalism and strives to get the best results for clients. We are grateful to William for his hard work and success he brings us which no doubt is a direct result of his perspicacity.
I have just had a long chat with Mrs Gillard following last week’s trial and she asked that I passed on her thanks to you. She commented on how patient you were with her, professional and well prepared given the late notice you would have received the papers. She was also pleased you took the time to call her the evening before as she did not expect this. Given, we don’t always get much thanks in the world of fraud PI, I thought you would like to know.

If William has been instructed by you, your litigation friend, your solicitor or agent, or through a pro bono referral, it is necessary to process your personal data in order to provide legal services. This may include advising on the prospects of litigation, advising on the value of a claim, representation at hearings or trial, and reviewing legal issues or evidence.
Recipients of your data
Depending on the nature of your case, data may be shared with courts and tribunals, your solicitors or agents, witnesses, experts, other legal representatives, ombudsmen or regulators, education and examining bodies, and current, past or prospective employers.
Special categories of data
Some matters require processing special category personal data, including information about health, ethnicity, religion, trade union membership, political beliefs, sexual orientation, or criminal allegations and convictions. Such data will only be processed where necessary to represent you or advise on your claim.
Retention
Your personal data will be retained for no longer than necessary and, where possible, anonymised. In general, records relating to cases are retained for at least six years to comply with professional obligations under the Bar Code of Conduct and tax record-keeping obligations.
