excellent, supportive, professional service
Our solicitor was highly professional and supportive, and went the extra mile for our complicated appeal to the SEND Tribunal. We had got to the point where we were struggling to 'see the wood for the trees' and her strategic and detailed legal guidance throughout the process, combined with her impressive attention to detail and tenacity and drive in the hearing happily led to a successful outcome. She was supported by similarly professional and supportive colleagues.
