'Lorna's advice has always been of the very highest calibre. Her commitment and work rate have meant that this advice has always been delivered quickly and efficiently. Lorna has that rare ability of being able to strike the right balance between laying out the options and giving her client the right advice for them. In every case, the outcome I was looking to achieve was realised, and this often came about due to a change of position from the other side. Lorna was originally highly recommended to me and I would have no hesitation now in highly recommending her.'
