Martyn Grant | Director
Joined Ellis Grant in 1992
Working in the law since 1979
Ellis Grant have long had a well-deserved reputation for excellence in costs, with Martyn Grant and Andy Ellis in particular being at the top of the tree. The presentation of their work, be it bills of costs, points of dispute or otherwise, is outstanding and it is backed by clear thinking, an unusually thorough and impressive knowledge of the relevant law, but allied also with a sensible and realistic approach to the vagaries of day to day costs decisions. They are formidable opponents and one is generally much better off to have them on your own side.
Alex Hutton Barrister, Hailsham Chambers
I have instructed Ellis Grant (principally Martyn Grant and Bob Asker) to prepare bills for me on a range of judicial review cases over more than fifteen years. They provide an excellent service. They are reliable and speedy in turning work around. They come up with creative and imaginative ways of dealing with difficult problems. In negotiations their good tactical sense is very effective. I have also been impressed at their handling of the detailed assessment hearings we have attended.
