Paul Shadarevian is consistently appearing in Planning Magazine, Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession, Legal 500, and Legal Business as one of the leading planning juniors in the country; variously quoted as being “top notch”, “a stylish but tough advocate”, “a lateral thinker and excellent team leader on major projects” and a barrister, “whose direct and no nonsense approach has earned him the respect of his peers and clients alike” and “whose cross examinations are always superb”. He was voted one of the top three specialist barristers nationally for his work in relation to development plans (Planning Magazine Legal Survey 2010).
