Testimonials

100% Successful Outcome - What More Can You Ask For
Lara is very proficient and pays attention to all the necessary details required to win a dispute and prepare briefs for Counsel.
At every stage Lara executed all the necessary steps in a timely manner, ultimately preparing briefs for Counsel - who appeared both pleased and a little surprised at the thoroughness thereof. End result was everything we asked for in court, no ifs ands or buts. Well, not as much in the way of costs as I would like but that's UK law, not anyone's fault.
