“Alison was extremely helpful and calming which allowed me to feel comfortable in her presence, Alison is a great listener and has never once rushed me away when I have had a rant to her about my emotions of the case. Alison’s advice to date and her predications have so far been 100% right and I can’t thank her enough. The rest of the team around Alison have also been extremely helpful whenever I have needed to deal with them. I would highly recommend.”
