Anna was incredibly professional and respectful and dealt with a challenging situation extremely well, offering excellent suggestions along the way. I was supporting a very nervous client who was suffering financial and emotional distress and anxious about the process. Anna put her at ease and worked with us in a calm and compassionate way leading my client to express how lovely she was and how much confidence and
assurance it gave her.

I have attended many mediations but was particularly pleased to have Anna for support and guidance on this one.
