Our consultants
Many legal firms have responded to the squeeze on hourly rates by employing more junior and less experienced fee earners to work on cases. DGB Solicitors have bucked this trend. We believe that experience is essential to evaluate how a case is resolved in the best interests of the client
and as quickly as possible. We combine experience and flexibility by using expert fee earners alongside a carefully chosen team of consultants most particularly:-

Steve Hardcastle is a master mariner. He started out as a River Pilot and has piloted over 2500 vessels of all sizes.

- City barristers with specific expertise in jurisdiction, choice of law, and admiralty court procedure.
