  • ‘Sarah Stocker was well informed, professional in her outlook, courteous, and prompt in her responses.’

  • 'Janine Collier inspired confidence and put us at ease. Janine always showed great empathy - and we always felt we weren't treated simply as a case - but as individuals. She was in regular contact, by phone / email - even out of hours when required. She built a great team of experts for our case - and regularly questioned and challenged them. She also found us a good case manager, who found us experts who could really help us - and she negotiated an advance on our settlement to fund these.'
