‘The team are helpful to work with and have a strong industry and company knowledge. ’
‘Richard Ryan has a deep understanding of the industry, company and legal issues involved. He is highly experienced and always happy to help. Patrick Horan is excellent to work with. He throws himself into understanding novel and complex issues, adopts a pragmatic approach and provides practical and clear considered advice. He communicates advice particularly well. ’
‘I believe that the Arthur Cox team would bring a very practical approach to any competition problem. They very much focus on actual practical steps and solutions as opposed to looking at competition theory and law.’
‘The two individuals I know are Richard Ryan, partner and Simon Breen, senior associate. They are both calm but very practical and focus on the central issue. They speak about the problem and its solution, not the myriad of other information that can surround a competition law issue.’
‘Very experienced team, uniquely well resourced in Dublin and stacks up very well against competition teams in larger jurisdictions like London and Brussels. I would have confidence in them handling the most significant matters we deal with.’
