Testimonials
‘We were recommended to Rashmi Dubé by a trusted supplier to our group. We required a lawyer who could quickly grasp a complex technical situation, advise simply and communicate well with all levels in our organisation.
We also required a tenacious confident orator with a very commercial understanding of the needs of our business.
Having met Rashmi , we have found her to be always available to advise on a very wide spectrum of legal matters whatever her schedule or hour of the day, professional and forthright in her considered opinions, able to tap into a wealth of experience within her team and her wider network.
The cases that Rashmi and her team have worked upon on our behalf have all resulted in successful outcomes for our company or Rashmi has quickly advised us against actions where this was likely not to be the case.
I have no hesitation in recommending Rashmi as a very competent, hard-working lawyer with excellent personable manners and tenacious in getting the job done!’

CEO Nikken Kosakusho Europe Ltd
‘I was recommended to Rashmi by a fellow lawyer; as our company had to contest a cancellation of order from a corporate company, hence after a brief meeting was convinced that Rashmi not only knew her legal stance, but also applied a professional approach and advised us how to conduct our approach. Needless to say the outcome was satisfactory and settled amicably and without losses to our company. She is also such a nice person to conduct business with.’

Managing Director at Interfurn UK Medical Systems Ltd
‘I met with Rashmi when I required an expert in construction law to deal with a litigation case for myself. During the time I have known Rashmi I have found her to be a true expert in her field providing solid advise and explaining the way forward in simple terms to ensure the correct course of action was taken. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rashmi to deal with legal matters, she is a true professional and such a genuine lovely person to work with also.’

‘I cannot recommend Rashmi Dube strongly enough. Our company recently went through an intense period of business negotiations during which Rashmi guided us with intelligence, absolute professionalism, and competence. She handled every aspect of the negotiations with utmost confidence and integrity, and was instrumental in bringing it to a successful conclusion. Rashmi is also extremely approachable and always has her client's best interest at heart — qualities that sets her apart from others in her field.’
