I worked with Trudi<\/a> and Hannah<\/a> on a long-running, intractable and very difficult case. Hannah was excellent, performing way beyond her experience. She was on top of the detail, very efficient (with me, the client, the court and the opposition) and effective. I was also very impressed with her client-handling, which was exemplary and befitted a solicitor of far more experience than she in fact has. Furthermore, she appeared unflappable and calm, as well as good humoured at all times, despite the many (and unusual) which arose in the case.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t
