"At Trigenix, we worked with Simon Halberstam for 5 years until the company was sold to Qualcomm in 2004. The quality of the advice and legal work was always truly excellent. The Trigenix business specialised in software for the communications industry and Simon's specialist IT and software legal expertise proved exceptional value and enabled us to tackle a wide range of business challenges. Our legal work always ran smoother, was more relevant to us and better managed than I have experienced in 20 years in the IT and communications business. Simon's personal involvement always ensured we got fast responses and his attention to detail gave our business a real commercial advantage. I have no hesitation is recommending Sprecher Grier Halberstam to new prospective clients."

"As an experienced CEO, I have repeatedly chosen Simon Halberstam as legal advisor over the last decade because I value the fact that when you choose Simon, you get Simon. He takes time to familiarise himself with the business and its technology, and he then personally handles the relationship rather than delegating .... unlike other law firms. This allows him to bring a high level of skill to drafting and negotiating contracts, putting my companies in the best possible legal positions. Other qualities I've appreciated are the fact that he consistently provides prompt and pragmatic advice, and his fee structure is both reasonable and transparent."
Karl W Feilder, CEO, The Neutral Group Limited
"Simon Halberstam has provided all our IT law advice in the UK for 8 years, during which time he has unfailingly provided extremely prompt,detailed, intelligent and cost-effective advice. As a software house
selling our own and third party software, both directly and via partners, we need a broad variety of IT contracts covering both packaged software and services. SGH's approach, based on tailored templates,initially provided us with a speedy and affordable quantum improvement in our standard contracts and has since kept pace with changes as required."

Innovation data Processing is a developer and provider of system software and we licensed 1000s of clients over a period that spans more than 30 years. Many of the largest and well know corporations worldwide depend on Innovation for Backup, Storage Management and Performance solutions.
At Innovation we have dealt primarily but not exclusively with Simon Halberstam of SGH for many years. Whilst I am sure that we could not be classified as a big user of SGH’s services we have never felt that we have received anything less than a first class friendly service.
SGH’s response has always been quick, their approach pragmatic and so far their advice has proven to be rather solid. In dealing with contractual issues I believe that these are three of the major ingredients required to efficiently address what can be testing issues.
I personally would have no hesitation in recommending the services of SGH to both small and large organisations.

"We have been using SGH for about 10 years and have received a consistent level of excellent service over that period. As a small business we like to move quickly when the need arises, and SGH have always been extremely responsive to our requests for assistance. Most of our work with them has involved general contract law and their advice has always recognised the balance between legal rigour and commercial reality. Where we have had to enter into potentially litigious areas, SGH have conducted negotiations to achieve a more than satisfactory result."

"I have used Simon Halberstam for over 10 years for all our software licences, maintenance agreements, reseller agreements, international distribution agreements etc. Simon's speed of response is very impressive. Very often it is the case that he is able to come up with variations to agreements during my telephone call to discuss the issue, making amendments as we speak, and at the end of the call Simon sends me the amended document by email for my immediate use.
Simon gives you a lot of confidence as there is never any hesitation in the advice he gives you and he never delegates any of his work to anyone else - for example a junior partner. I know I could find a much cheaper solicitor in Peterborough where we are located, however I know from past experience that local solicitors do not have the wealth of experience that Simon does and, because of this, it takes much longer to get the appropriate advice (which has been incorrect on occasion) and the final bill can be much higher in the end (and even more costly if the advice is incorrect). For a city-based solicitor, I think Simon offers great value for money and I would recommend his services to anyone.
