- Pricing
Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie LLP
Quoted per case rather than published. You will not be able to compare cost against anyone else here without contacting them first.
Fragomen LLP
No pricing found on their site. Not unusual in this market, and not a criticism, but it does mean the cost is unknown until you ask.
- Independent reviews
Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie LLP
We hold no rating for them, and no record of when anyone last looked, so read this as a gap in our data rather than a finding about theirs.
Fragomen LLP
2.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot from 7 reviews. A sample that small moves several points on a handful of reviews, so read the reviews rather than the number.
