Hi Leah thank you for your support and intro to Dan. You've approached my case very diligently and even though the process has been relatively short you've been there at all times. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone. Thank you

Leah
Leah was allocated to my case by my insurer and I am fortunate to have experienced such an exceptional solicitor to represent me. Leah is the ultimate professional who was proactive from 1st contact and quickly established a rapport and personal empathy that I immediately felt in safe hands. Despite multiple demands on her time I always found Leah accessible and always kept her promises and throughout the entire process leading up to and following my court appearance I appreciated the time taken to summarise the evidence and offer pragmatic advice which in no small part contributed to the best outcome I could have hoped for in the circumstances.

Very grateful
I'm so grateful for the way that you've supported and guided us though this process and helped to hold us up. You'll never know how much I appreciate those calming phone calls. All three of you are incredible.

Great support
We wanted to thank you so very much for the help and support that you have given over the last few months. Please would also mind passing on our gratitude; without the 'Dream Team' on my side, the outcome would undoubtedly have been very different. The team worked amazingly well yesterday in the face of adversity (the CPS), and we are extremely grateful for this.
