A competent attorney, but communication could be improved

I engaged Mr. Roper to represent our small tech firm in a complex wrongful dismissal case. His credentials are undeniably impressive; his recognition as Lawyer of the Year in Labour and Employment Law gave us confidence, and his deep knowledge of cross-border employment issues was evident. He provided a thorough analysis of our position and the relevant administrative law precedents. Ultimately, we reached a settlement that was fair and protected the company's interests. However, the experience was not seamless. While Mr. Roper himself is sharp, there were often significant delays in receiving responses to our emails, and updates on case progress felt sporadic. We sometimes felt we had to initiate contact to get information. For the premium rate, we expected more proactive communication and a clearer timeline. He is a highly skilled practitioner who knows the law inside and out, but the client service aspect of his practice felt just adequate. If you need top-tier legal strategy and can manage the communication flow yourself, he is a solid choice.
