Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- The service provided by Claire Bushen has been excellent - she is highly responsive, technically strong, and consistently provides clear, commercially focused advice. She has a strong grasp of our business and adds real value beyond the immediate legal question.
- Claire Bushen and more recently Lucy Suddaby have handled a longstanding and tricky set of claims for an insured, and their guidance and expertise have been second to none. It's brilliant to work with Claire, Lucy, and their team and to be able to trust their directions when faced with difficult claimants. They are articulate in their advice and prompt to be proactive and think outside the box for solutions. Senior Associate Fran Shaw in their team has also been fantastic on these cases. The whole team here has been collaborative, and to build that openness and trust on a case is excellent.
