"Providing an ‘excellent service’, Flint Bishop LLP assists with matters involving change of ownership and refurbishment of premises, and remains particularly strong on licensing reviews across the country. The team represented clients before local authorities against noise abatement orders, conducted reviews of premises licenses and secured occasional licenses in the aftermath of licenses lapsing. Other work highlights included license revocations, provisional licenses and relicensing. The ‘responsive’ Andrew Cochrane leads the practice."
Legal 500 2017
"Andrew Cochrane is head of licensing at the firm and draws particular praise for his level-headed approach, with one source commenting: "He's always very measured, methodical and organised, he just does everything so smoothly." In a recent highlight, he obtained a new premises licence for a pub in Aberdeen following the insolvency of the previous licence holder."
