Customer Reviews

Kevin Bryant Mar, 27 2022

Caroline was responsive, quick getting back and professional.

David Morris, Bordeaux Oct, 06 2020

Caroline was very helpful, knowledgeable and did her utmost to be available when possible. Had Caroline been located nearer to us, a face to face meeting would probably have been of benefit as it is not always easy to communicate clearly by email.

Martyn Strachan, Scotland Sep, 13 2020

To be fair to Caroline, what I was asking her would have been almost impossible to bring to a successful conclusion and she did as much as she could in the circumstances. She was helpful, responded promptly to communications and researched the matter thoroughly.

Michele Willmott, Paris Aug, 08 2020

Caroline was helpful & precise in her recommendations.

Peter Jeun Ho Tsang, Paris May, 20 2020

Caroline really couldn't have done more. I was very satisfied with the service and I would definitely recommend to friends.

Rameez Sayed, Paris Apr, 24 2020

Caroline has been very responsive and started to advise me as soon as I had made my initial contact. She understands you well, given that she is French and well versed with English.

I made some informed decisions, with her much sorted advice. Her fees are reasonable and she explains you very well before you engage her.

Caroline has been very professional in all her aspects. She is very smart and her introspection is the only way for further improvement.

Peter Blow, Paris Jan, 18 2022

Caroline assisted and advised me in relation to a possible medical negligence claim. Although I did not proceed with the claim, my case was thoroughly examined and I was advised throughout in a professional and sympathetic manner.

The advice was that the claim was unlikely to succeed and that I should not commit any further funds, which might well prove to be wasted.

The fee charged was very reasonable under the circumstances. I would thoroughly recommend this service and Caroline in particular. [View all G o o g l e Reviews]
