Claire’s accreditations

"Amazing people"
Almost 5 years ago my son suffered a life changing brain injury accident. A new life for everyone, so many unknowns so many difficult decisions. I met Claire and the team shortly after the accident. So many questions answered but more than that, amazing lovely people. Claire has been guiding me and the family throughout this ordeal with such compassion, there every time I needed her we couldn’t of asked for a nicer person. I have met many others within Boyes Turner and all have been genuine lovely people, I’m now working with Ruth and Lindsay from the court of protection. Again, I can't say enough about them amazing lovely people. They truly do want the best for my son and they did and continue to do so.
"Superb support"
Unforgettably you were a superb support to us personally and professional. 
"Professionalism and continued reassurance"
I would like to thank you for your support and assistance during the last 18 months. Your professionalism and continued reassurance has helped us immensely. 
"I don't think I've felt this happy in ages"
Thank you again for everything, I am so happy that I can finally look towards the future and start drawing a line under the accident and putting it in the past where it belongs...I don't think I've felt this happy in ages, it's like a massive weight has been lifted from my shoulders just knowing that it's all done. You have honestly made the last two years worth all the tests. I know I've not always been the most patient person and had my tantrums, but working with you has been so lovely and you have always been there for me along with my dad. You've always taken the time to explain things to me and guide me in the right direction and that I am so grateful for. I am so very thankful and grateful for everything you have done for me.
