Accolades

Recommendations

“From my initial meeting with Claire to my settlement agreement being finalised, the advice I was given was professional, practical and clear. Claire has a very pragmatic approach; I was always offered different options explaining the risks and the benefits of each approach to enable me to make an informed decision.  I felt that I was in control from start to finish. 

Claires experience is what really helped and reassured me, there didn’t seem to be anything she hadn’t come across, she had solutions for everything and when I was feeling overwhelmed, she was always available to discuss and put me at ease. 

Claire is also compassionate and from the first time I spoke with her I felt I could trust her, I always felt that she cared about me as well as the outcome. She also has a great sense of humour which helped me get through the most difficult of days, just having someone to feel connected to was incredibly important to me.

I never imagined that I would find myself in such a difficult situation with my employer and having Claire with me every step of the way really did get me through.

Claire is an absolute asset to the Kuits team, and I would highly recommend her.”
