  • Gill's breadth of knowledge is outstanding and her ability to pick a simple solution in a cost effective and time efficient manner is of great benefit to us. She is pro-active in her approach and available to assist no matter what deadline she is faced with. Gill’s understanding of our sector is second to none and she is most certainly our “go to” lawyer.

  • Gillian offered pragmatic, practical advice and cut through the “peripheral” issues to the heart of the dispute. She was swift to respond to any queries and gave clear and succinct direction on responses. I found her exceptionally easy to work with, extremely professional, accessible and with a keen sense of humour which we needed in this matter.
