"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.

"I wanted to take the opportunity to express my thanks..."

I wanted to take the opportunity to express my thanks to you for your professional attitude and handling of the claim throughout this tragic case. It is in cases like this where the compensation can never compensate for the loss suffered, but hopefully it will help in some way to move forward.

"Great support throughout a very emotional and difficult period"

Claire was very much the lynchpin in achieving settlement of a complex case. From the outset Claire ensured steps were taken to manage both rehabilitation and legal/case requirements in the correct sequence; this included the early appointment of a case manager. In addition Claire has been a great support throughout a very emotional and difficult period in our lives.

"Helping me start to get my life back together"

The last 6 years since my incident have been so difficult for my mental health and general life When I chose Boyes Turner, I was expecting just a solicitor to take my case forward. What in fact I actually got is a solicitor who genuinely cared about what had happened to me and wanted to help me get justice. Without their support I would have probably given in and accepted what happened. I am so glad that I didn’t, now it’s over I am now feeling empowered knowing it wasn’t my fault. They have given me hope for the future. It is more than a job for Claire, she is caring and kind, and wants the best for clients. Thank you.
