Christopher Murphy
I engaged Leo Saunders of Greenway Chambers for guidance on a complex employee benefits issue related to a company restructuring. His recognition in Labour and Employment Law was a key factor in my selection, and his foundational knowledge in this area was evident. He correctly identified the compliance pitfalls in our severance package proposals. However, the experience was mixed. While his analysis was sound, there were noticeable delays in receiving drafted documents, and his communication style felt somewhat distant, perhaps due to the international aspect of his practice between Charlotte and Sydney. For straightforward legal advice on recognized matters, he is capable. Yet, for clients who prioritize frequent updates and a more responsive partnership, expectations may need to be managed. The outcome was legally satisfactory, but the process felt more transactional than collaborative.
