  • ‘Anne Thomson has been superb in supporting me over the last few years through a very challenging time. I have had complete confidence in her advice & expertise delivered in a no-nonsense but compassionate way.'

  • ‘Chloe Turner has been brilliant from day 1. Always available for advice, very quick responses. Anticipated the actions of the respondent before they happened. Was very well prepared and knew the case inside out. Makes you feel like your case is the only one they’re working on even though it’s obviously not! Acted with empathy throughout and gave me the confidence to fight my corner. Can’t thank her enough.’
