“Tim Bamford understands our ethos and provides clear advice in all his work.” 

Chambers UK

'Tim Bamford is our main point of contact, having worked with him on numerous cases over the years.  When we require legal advice, it is usually a high-pressured situation, so his calm and clear instruction is always appreciated.  Tim makes himself available for any queries, and if he is not available, advises in advance to allow us to plan responses etc. Some cases have not been clear cut, but Tim explains the different options and possible outcomes which in turn allows us to make a more informed decision on which route we want to take.'
