“I engaged Tyler at Athene Legal after scoring a significant victory at trial for a client in hotly contested and complex High Court Litigation. Tyler and his team’s work on the bill of costs was efficient and detailed, and his pragmatic and commercially focused advice assisted in the early resolution of the costs issue on sensible terms. I would be happy using Athene Legal again and would recommend them to colleagues and contacts.”
