Testimonials

Stephen and I have worked together in tax-related director disqualification cases and in litigation involving insolvency financial claims.
I was very impressed that quick progress was made in these cases on behalf of those clients.
In my time working with Stephen I have found him to be approachable and somebody that works tirelessly on behalf of his clients.

I have worked with Stephen both in bringing claims on behalf of office-holders including liquidators under the insolvency legislation and in defending claims on behalf of office-holders. Those claims have usually involved multi-million pound disputes raising complex issues of law and fact. All have involved litigation work in the High Court which is governed by specialist and exacting Practice Directions and Protocols.
In my extensive experience of working with him, Stephen is an extremely hard-working and effective litigator. His instructions are always properly prepared and provided in a concise manner with an all-important eye for detail. Draft evidence is produced in precisely the same way. At a practical level, I have always found Stephen to be easily accessible, even at weekends and evenings, which is especially important where time-frames are tight.

Stephen and I have worked together in cases involving VAT, indirect taxes and High Court disputes over a period of more than 10 years.
I have found Stephen to be commercially focused on behalf of his clients in achieving the right outcome.
Stephen is always well prepared and strives hard for his clients in order to secure the best outcome possible.

As an Insolvency Practitioner I have recently instructed Stephen to pursue the former directors of a liquidated company in relation to a large claim amounting to more than £2,000,000.00. The claim concerns complex factual and legal issues.
I have found Stephen to be accessible, hard-working and extremely competent in carrying out his functions and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

I instructed Stephen Chinnery at a time of great stress and upheaval. I was facing a freezing order and other injunctions including orders for delivery up of material and orders relating to the use of confidential information. Stephen really helped me to understand the process and was available to assist me even at evenings and on weekends. Stephen worked well to formulate my evidence in response to the injunction proceedings in a very tight time frame and under enormous pressure.
